Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Olympus 5010 and Fujifilm XQ1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus 5010 has external dimensions of 95 x 56 x 20 mm (3.74 x 2.2 x 0.79″) and weighs 126 g (0.28 lb / 4.44 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm XQ1 has external dimensions of 100 x 59 x 33 mm (3.94 x 2.32 x 1.3″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus 5010 and the Fujifilm XQ1. Olympus 5010 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 5mm narrower, 3mm shorter and 13mm thinner than Fujifilm XQ1.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus 5010 and Fujifilm XQ1.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus 5010 is significantly lighter (80g ) than the Fujifilm XQ1 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Olympus Stylus 5010 (mju 5010) nor Fujifilm XQ1 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Fujifilm XQ1's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus 5010's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
