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 TG-4 and Canon SX260 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus TG-4 has external dimensions of 112 x 66 x 31 mm (4.41 x 2.6 x 1.22″) and weighs 247 g (0.54 lb / 8.71 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX260 HS has external dimensions of 106 x 61 x 33 mm (4.17 x 2.4 x 1.3″) and weighs 231 g (0.51 lb / 8.15 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus TG-4 and the Canon SX260 HS. Canon SX260 HS is 6mm narrower and 5mm shorter than Olympus TG-4 but it is also 2mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus TG-4 and Canon SX260 HS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus TG-4 and Canon SX260 HS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX260 HS is 16g lighter than the Olympus TG-4 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TG-4, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the SX260 HS.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus TG-4 and Canon SX260 HS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
