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-6 and Pentax VS20 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh WG-6 has external dimensions of 118 x 66 x 33 mm (4.65 x 2.6 x 1.3″) and weighs 246 g (0.54 lb / 8.68 oz) (including batteries). Pentax VS20 has external dimensions of 111 x 61 x 38 mm (4.37 x 2.4 x 1.5″) and weighs 235 g (0.52 lb / 8.29 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Ricoh WG-6 and the Pentax VS20. Pentax VS20 is 7mm narrower and 5mm shorter than Ricoh WG-6 but it is also 5mm thicker.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Ricoh WG-6 and Pentax VS20.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Ricoh WG-6 and Pentax VS20.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Pentax VS20 is 11g lighter than the Ricoh WG-6 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the WG-6, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the VS20.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Ricoh WG-6 and Pentax VS20'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.
