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 Samsung DV150F and Canon IXUS 165 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung DV150F has external dimensions of 96 x 55 x 18 mm (3.78 x 2.17 x 0.71″) and weighs 116 g (0.26 lb / 4.09 oz) (including batteries). Canon IXUS 165 has external dimensions of 95 x 54 x 22 mm (3.74 x 2.13 x 0.87″) and weighs 128 g (0.28 lb / 4.52 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
