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 ZS35 and Canon G15 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS35 has external dimensions of and weighs 305 g (including batteries). Canon G15 has external dimensions of 107 x 76 x 40 mm (4.21 x 2.99 x 1.57″) and weighs 352 g (0.78 lb / 12.42 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS35 and the Canon G15. Panasonic ZS35 has the same height with Canon G15. On the other hand, with a width of 62mm, it is 14 narrower and also with a thickness of 32mm, it is 8mm thinner than Canon G15.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS35 is 47g lighter than the Canon G15 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS35 (Lumix DMC-TZ55) nor Canon PowerShot G15 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 ZS35 and Canon G15's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic ZS35 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Canon G15 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to ZS35.
