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 Panasonic GM1 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). Panasonic GM1 has external dimensions of 99 x 55 x 30 mm (3.88 x 2.16 x 1.2″) and weighs 204 g (0.45 lb / 7.20 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Pentax Q7 and the Panasonic GM1. Panasonic GM1 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 3mm narrower, 3mm shorter and 4mm thinner than Pentax Q7.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Pentax Q7 and Panasonic GM1.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Pentax Q7 and Panasonic GM1.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Pentax Q7 is 4g lighter than the Panasonic GM1 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
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 Panasonic Lumix DMC-GM1 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 Panasonic GM1'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.
