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 Sigma DP1 and Sigma DP1x side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sigma DP1 has external dimensions of 113 x 60 x 50 mm (4.45 x 2.36 x 1.97″) and weighs 270 g (0.60 lb / 9.52 oz) (including batteries). Sigma DP1x has external dimensions of 113 x 60 x 50 mm (4.45 x 2.36 x 1.97″) and weighs 250 g (0.55 lb / 8.82 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sigma DP1 and the Sigma DP1x. In this case, we can see that Sigma DP1 and Sigma DP1x have the exact same height, width and thickness.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sigma DP1 and Sigma DP1x.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sigma DP1 and Sigma DP1x.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sigma DP1x is 20g lighter than the Sigma DP1 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sigma DP1 nor Sigma DP1x provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors. If weather sealing is a must-have feature for you, check these sections: Top Compact Cameras with Weather Sealing
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sigma DP1 and Sigma DP1x's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 2.50 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
