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 TL225 and Olympus TG-820 iHS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung TL225 has external dimensions of 100 x 60 x 19 mm (3.94 x 2.36 x 0.75″) and weighs 187 g (0.41 lb / 6.60 oz) (including batteries). Olympus TG-820 iHS has external dimensions of 101 x 65 x 26 mm (3.98 x 2.56 x 1.02″) and weighs 206 g (0.45 lb / 7.27 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung TL225 and the Olympus TG-820 iHS. Samsung TL225 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 1mm narrower, 5mm shorter and 7mm thinner than Olympus TG-820 iHS.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Samsung TL225 and Olympus TG-820 iHS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung TL225 and Olympus TG-820 iHS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung TL225 is 19g lighter than the Olympus TG-820 iHS but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the TG-820 iHS, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the TL225.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung TL225's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus TG-820 iHS's 3 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
