Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Ricoh G900 and Leica M9-P side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh G900 has external dimensions of 118 x 66 x 33 mm (4.65 x 2.6 x 1.3″) and weighs 247 g (0.54 lb / 8.71 oz) (including batteries). Leica M9-P has external dimensions of 139 x 80 x 37 mm (5.47 x 3.15 x 1.46″) and weighs 600 g (1.32 lb / 21.16 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Ricoh G900 and Leica M9-P. Ricoh G900 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 21mm narrower, 14mm shorter and 4mm thinner than Leica M9-P. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Ricoh G900 has a built-in lens but Leica M9-P doesn't. Once you put a lens on M9-P, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Ricoh G900 is significantly lighter (353g ) than the Leica M9-P which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on M9-P, the total kit will weigh much higher.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Ricoh G900's 3" LCD screen is slightly larger than Leica M9-P's 2.5" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
