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 ZS60 and Nikon S100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Panasonic ZS60 has external dimensions of 112 x 64 x 38 mm (4.41 x 2.52 x 1.5″) and weighs 282 g (0.62 lb / 9.95 oz) (including batteries). Nikon S100 has external dimensions of 99 x 65 x 18 mm (3.9 x 2.56 x 0.71″) and weighs 175 g (0.39 lb / 6.17 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS60 and the Nikon S100. Nikon S100 is 13mm narrower and 20mm thinner than Panasonic ZS60 but it is also 1mm taller.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Panasonic ZS60 and Nikon S100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Panasonic ZS60 and Nikon S100.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S100 is significantly lighter (107g ) than the Panasonic ZS60 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS60 (Lumix DMC-TZ80) nor Nikon Coolpix S100 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
Nikon S100's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic ZS60's 3 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
