Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Ricoh WG-6 and Samsung NX3000 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). Samsung NX3000 has external dimensions of 117 x 66 x 39 mm (4.61 x 2.6 x 1.54″) and weighs 230 g (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Ricoh WG-6 and Samsung NX3000. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Ricoh WG-6 has a built-in lens but Samsung NX3000 doesn't. Once you put a lens on NX3000, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung NX3000 is 16g lighter than the Ricoh WG-6 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
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 NX3000, the total kit will weigh much higher.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Ricoh WG-6 and Samsung NX3000's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
On the other hand, Samsung NX3000 features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over the head levels whereas the Ricoh WG-6 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to NX3000.
