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 Pentax Q7 and Olympus E-M10 II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Pentax Q7 has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 34 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.34″) and weighs 200 g (0.44 lb / 7.05 oz) (including batteries). Olympus E-M10 II has external dimensions of 120 x 83 x 47 mm (4.72 x 3.27 x 1.85″) and weighs 390 g (0.86 lb / 13.76 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Pentax Q7 and the Olympus E-M10 II. Pentax Q7 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 18mm narrower, 25mm shorter and 13mm thinner than Olympus E-M10 II.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Pentax Q7 and Olympus E-M10 II.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Pentax Q7 and Olympus E-M10 II.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Pentax Q7 is significantly lighter (190g ) than the Olympus E-M10 II which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Also keep in mind that body weight is not the only deciding factor when comparing two interchangeable camera bodies, you also have to take into account the lenses that you will be using with these bodies.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Pentax Q7 nor Olympus OM-D E-M10 II 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
Pentax Q7 and Olympus E-M10 II's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Olympus E-M10 II 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 Pentax Q7 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to E-M10 II.
