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 Samsung WB150F 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). Samsung WB150F has external dimensions of 107 x 6 1 x 23 mm and weighs 188g (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic FZ300 and the Samsung WB150F. Samsung WB150F is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 25mm narrower, 31mm shorter and 94mm thinner than Panasonic FZ300.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic FZ300 and Samsung WB150F.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung WB150F is significantly lighter (503g ) 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 WB150F which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic FZ300 and Samsung WB150F's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
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. Samsung WB150F's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to FZ300.
