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-70 and Samsung EX2F side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Ricoh WG-70 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). Samsung EX2F has external dimensions of 112 x 62 x 29 mm (4.41 x 2.44 x 1.14″) and weighs 294 g (0.65 lb / 10.37 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Ricoh WG-70 and the Samsung EX2F. Ricoh WG-70 has the same height with Samsung EX2F. On the other hand, with a width of 123mm, it is 11 wider and also with a thickness of 30mm, it is 1mm thicker than Samsung EX2F.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Ricoh WG-70 and Samsung EX2F.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Ricoh WG-70 is significantly lighter (101g ) than the Samsung EX2F which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the WG-70, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the EX2F.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung EX2F's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Ricoh WG-70's 2.7 screen.
Moreover, Samsung EX2F sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. On the other hand, Ricoh WG-70 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to EX2F.
