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 WG-30W and Panasonic TS1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh WG-30W has external dimensions of 123 x 62 x 30 mm (4.84 x 2.44 x 1.18″) and weighs 194 g (0.43 lb / 6.84 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic TS1 has external dimensions of 98 x 63 x 23 mm (3.86 x 2.48 x 0.91″) and weighs 189 g (0.42 lb / 6.67 oz) (including batteries).
