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 TS4 and Olympus XZ-10 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic TS4 has external dimensions of 103 x 64 x 27 mm (4.06 x 2.52 x 1.06″) and weighs 197 g (0.43 lb / 6.95 oz) (including batteries). Olympus XZ-10 has external dimensions of 102 x 61 x 34 mm (4.03 x 2.41 x 1.35″) and weighs 221 g (0.49 lb / 7.80 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic TS4 and the Olympus XZ-10. Olympus XZ-10 is 1mm narrower and 3mm shorter than Panasonic TS4 but it is also 7mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic TS4 and Olympus XZ-10.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic TS4 and Olympus XZ-10.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS4 is 24g lighter than the Olympus XZ-10 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS4, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the XZ-10.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus XZ-10's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic TS4's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
