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-50 and Canon G9 X II side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh WG-50 has external dimensions of 123 x 62 x 30 mm (4.84 x 2.44 x 1.18″) and weighs 193 g (0.43 lb / 6.81 oz) (including batteries). Canon G9 X II has external dimensions of 98 x 58 x 31 mm (3.86 x 2.28 x 1.22″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Ricoh WG-50 is 13g lighter than the Canon G9 X II but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the WG-50, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the G9 X II.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon G9 X II's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Ricoh WG-50's 2.7 screen.
