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 WB1100F and Panasonic FZ200 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Samsung WB1100F has external dimensions of 125 x 87 x 96 mm (4.92 x 3.43 x 3.78″) and weighs 512 g (1.13 lb / 18.06 oz) (including batteries). Panasonic FZ200 has external dimensions of 125 x 87 x 110 mm (4.92 x 3.43 x 4.33″) and weighs 588 g (1.30 lb / 20.74 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Samsung WB1100F and the Panasonic FZ200. Samsung WB1100F has the same height and width with Panasonic FZ200. On the other hand, with a thickness of 96mm, it is 14mm thinner.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Samsung WB1100F and Panasonic FZ200.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Samsung WB1100F and Panasonic FZ200.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung WB1100F is 76g lighter than the Panasonic FZ200 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung WB1100F nor Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Samsung WB1100F and Panasonic FZ200's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Panasonic FZ200 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. Samsung WB1100F's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to FZ200.
