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 FZ300 and Nikon S810c side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic FZ300 has external dimensions of 132 x 92 x 117 mm (5.2 x 3.62 x 4.61″) and weighs 691 g (including batteries). Nikon S810c has external dimensions of 113 x 64 x 28 mm (4.45 x 2.52 x 1.1″) and weighs 216 g (0.48 lb / 7.62 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic FZ300 and the Nikon S810c. Nikon S810c is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 19mm narrower, 28mm shorter and 89mm thinner than Panasonic FZ300.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic FZ300 and Nikon S810c.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic FZ300 and Nikon S810c.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S810c is significantly lighter (475g ) than the Panasonic FZ300 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the FZ300 has a big advantage over the S810c which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S810c's 3.70" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic FZ300's 3 screen.
On the other hand, Panasonic FZ300 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. On the other hand, Nikon S810c has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to FZ300.
