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-5 GPS and Fujifilm XQ1 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh WG-5 GPS has external dimensions of 125 x 65 x 32 mm (4.92 x 2.56 x 1.26″) and weighs 236 g (0.52 lb / 8.32 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm XQ1 has external dimensions of 100 x 59 x 33 mm (3.94 x 2.32 x 1.3″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Ricoh WG-5 GPS and the Fujifilm XQ1. Fujifilm XQ1 is 25mm narrower and 6mm shorter than Ricoh WG-5 GPS but it is also 1mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Ricoh WG-5 GPS and Fujifilm XQ1.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Ricoh WG-5 GPS and Fujifilm XQ1.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm XQ1 is 30g lighter than the Ricoh WG-5 GPS but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the WG-5 GPS, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the XQ1.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Ricoh WG-5 GPS and Fujifilm XQ1'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.
