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 Panasonic ZS80 and Leica Q-P side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS80 has external dimensions of 112 x 69 x 42 mm (4.41 x 2.72 x 1.65″) and weighs 327 g (0.72 lb / 11.53 oz) (including batteries). Leica Q-P has external dimensions of 130 x 80 x 93 mm (5.12 x 3.15 x 3.66″) and weighs 640 g (1.41 lb / 22.58 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS80 and the Leica Q-P. Panasonic ZS80 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 18mm narrower, 11mm shorter and 51mm thinner than Leica Q-P.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS80 and Leica Q-P.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic ZS80 and Leica Q-P.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS80 is significantly lighter (313g ) than the Leica Q-P which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS80 (Lumix DC-TZ95) nor Leica Q-P 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
Panasonic ZS80 and Leica Q-P's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic ZS80 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Leica Q-P has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to ZS80.
