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 TS2 and Canon N side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic TS2 has external dimensions of 99 x 63 x 24 mm (3.9 x 2.48 x 0.94″) and weighs 188 g (0.41 lb / 6.63 oz) (including batteries). Canon N has external dimensions of 79 x 60 x 29 mm (3.11 x 2.36 x 1.14″) and weighs 195 g (0.43 lb / 6.88 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic TS2 and the Canon N. Canon N is 20mm narrower and 3mm shorter than Panasonic TS2 but it is also 5mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic TS2 and Canon N.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic TS2 and Canon N.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS2 is 7g lighter than the Canon N but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS2, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the N.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon N's 2.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic TS2's 2.7" screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Canon N LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Panasonic TS2 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to N.
