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 VG-145 and Sony TX66 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus VG-145 has external dimensions of 96 x 57 x 19 mm (3.78 x 2.24 x 0.75″) and weighs 120 g (0.26 lb / 4.23 oz) (including batteries). Sony TX66 has external dimensions of 93 x 54 x 13 mm (3.66 x 2.13 x 0.51″) and weighs 109 g (0.24 lb / 3.84 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus VG-145 and the Sony TX66. Sony TX66 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 3mm narrower, 3mm shorter and 6mm thinner than Olympus VG-145.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus VG-145 and Sony TX66.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus VG-145 and Sony TX66.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony TX66 is 11g lighter than the Olympus VG-145 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Olympus VG-145 nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX66 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
Sony TX66's 3.30" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus VG-145's 3" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
