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 ZS45 and Olympus TG-6 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS45 has external dimensions of 108 x 60 x 32 mm (4.25 x 2.36 x 1.26″) and weighs 249 g (0.55 lb / 8.78 oz) (including batteries). Olympus TG-6 has external dimensions of 113 x 66 x 32 mm (4.45 x 2.6 x 1.26″) and weighs 253 g (0.56 lb / 8.92 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS45 is 4g lighter than the Olympus TG-6 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TG-6, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the ZS45.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic ZS45 and Olympus TG-6's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic ZS45 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 Olympus TG-6 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to ZS45.
