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 6000 and Nikon P7000 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus 6000 has external dimensions of 95 x 63 x 22 mm (3.74 x 2.48 x 0.87″) and weighs 179 g (0.39 lb / 6.31 oz) (including batteries). Nikon P7000 has external dimensions of 114 x 77 x 45 mm (4.5 x 3.03 x 1.76″) and weighs 310 g (0.68 lb / 10.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus 6000 and the Nikon P7000. Olympus 6000 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 19mm narrower, 14mm shorter and 23mm thinner than Nikon P7000.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus 6000 and Nikon P7000.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus 6000 and Nikon P7000.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Olympus 6000 is significantly lighter (131g ) than the Nikon P7000 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the 6000 has a big advantage over the P7000 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon P7000's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus 6000's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
