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 ZS40 and Panasonic TS6 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS40 has external dimensions of 111 x 64 x 34 mm (4.37 x 2.52 x 1.34″) and weighs 240 g (0.53 lb / 8.47 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic TS6 has external dimensions of 110 x 67 x 29 mm (4.33 x 2.64 x 1.14″) and weighs 214 g (0.47 lb / 7.55 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS40 and the Panasonic TS6. Panasonic TS6 is 1mm narrower and 5mm thinner than Panasonic ZS40 but it is also 3mm taller.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS40 and Panasonic TS6.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic ZS40 and Panasonic TS6.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS6 is 26g lighter than the Panasonic ZS40 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TS6, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the ZS40.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic ZS40 and Panasonic TS6's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
