Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, We are going to illustrate Sony A7S and Casio TRYX side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony A7S has external dimensions of 127 x 94 x 48 mm (5 x 3.7 x 1.89″) and weighs 489 g (1.08 lb / 17.25 oz) (including batteries). Casio TRYX has external dimensions of 122 x 58 x 15 mm (4.8 x 2.28 x 0.59″) and weighs (including batteries).
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Sony A7S and Casio TRYX. Casio TRYX is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 5mm narrower, 36mm shorter and 33mm thinner than Sony A7S. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Casio TRYX has a built-in lens but Sony A7S doesn't. Once you put a lens on A7S, its thickness will increase significantly.

Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Casio TRYX is 489g lighter than the Sony A7S but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Again, this comparison may not be very useful in real life as we are comparing the weight of a camera with a built-in lens to the body-only weight of an interchangeable lens camera. Once you put a lens on A7S, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
With its weather sealed body, we believe that A7S has a big advantage over TRYX which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony A7S and Casio TRYX's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3.
Sony A7S features a
Tilting only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over the head levels. On the other hand, Casio TRYX sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful especially for taking Selfie shots and video.
Both Sony A7S and Casio TRYX have 12.0 MP resolution sensors but Sony A7S's sensor is Full frame (35.8 x 23.9 mm ) and Casio TRYX's sensor is 1/2.3" (6.17 x 4.55 mm ).
Since Sony A7S's has a larger sensor area with the same resolution, this means that it also has a larger pixel area hence better light collecting capacity for a given aperture compared to Casio TRYX.
Below you can see the A7S and TRYX sensor size comparison.
