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 XZ-10 and Nikon S9300 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus XZ-10 has external dimensions of 102 x 61 x 34 mm (4.03 x 2.41 x 1.35″) and weighs 221 g (0.49 lb / 7.80 oz) (including batteries). Nikon S9300 has external dimensions of 109 x 62 x 31 mm (4.29 x 2.44 x 1.22″) and weighs 215 g (0.47 lb / 7.58 oz) (including batteries).

Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus XZ-10 and Nikon S9300.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus XZ-10 and Nikon S9300.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S9300 is 6g lighter than the Olympus XZ-10 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Olympus Stylus XZ-10 nor Nikon Coolpix S9300 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
Olympus XZ-10 and Nikon S9300's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
