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 Ricoh G900 and Nikon Z50 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). Nikon Z50 has external dimensions of 127 x 94 x 60 mm (5 x 3.7 x 2.36″) and weighs 397 g (0.88 lb / 14.00 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Ricoh G900 and the Nikon Z50. Ricoh G900 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 9mm narrower, 28mm shorter and 27mm thinner than Nikon Z50. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Ricoh G900 has a built-in lens but Nikon Z50 doesn't. Once you put a lens on Z50, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Ricoh G900 and Nikon Z50.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Ricoh G900 and Nikon Z50.
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 (150g ) than the Nikon Z50 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 Z50, the total kit will weigh much higher.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon Z50's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Ricoh G900's 3 screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Nikon Z50 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Ricoh G900 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to Z50.
