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 VH-410 and Nikon S02 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Olympus VH-410 has external dimensions of 102 x 60 x 21 mm (4.02 x 2.36 x 0.83″) and weighs 152 g (0.34 lb / 5.36 oz) (including batteries). Nikon S02 has external dimensions of 77 x 51 x 18 mm (3.03 x 2.01 x 0.69″) and weighs 100 g (0.22 lb / 3.53 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Olympus VH-410 and the Nikon S02. Nikon S02 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 25mm narrower, 9mm shorter and 3mm thinner than Olympus VH-410.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Olympus VH-410 and Nikon S02.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Olympus VH-410 and Nikon S02.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S02 is significantly lighter (52g ) than the Olympus VH-410 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Olympus VH-410 nor Nikon Coolpix S02 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 VH-410's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Nikon S02's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
