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 ZS3 and Fujifilm Real 3D W1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS3 has external dimensions of 103 x 60 x 33 mm (4.06 x 2.36 x 1.3″) and weighs 229 g (0.50 lb / 8.08 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm Real 3D W1 has external dimensions of 124 x 68 x 26 mm (4.88 x 2.68 x 1.02″) and weighs 260 g (0.57 lb / 9.17 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS3 and the Fujifilm Real 3D W1. Panasonic ZS3 is 21mm narrower and 8mm shorter than Fujifilm Real 3D W1 but it is also 7mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS3 and Fujifilm Real 3D W1.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS3 is 31g lighter than the Fujifilm Real 3D W1 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS3 (Lumix DMC-TZ7) nor Fujifilm FinePix Real 3D W1 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 ZS3's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm Real 3D W1's 2.8" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
