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 Sony A6300 and Nikon B700 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony A6300 has external dimensions of 120 x 67 x 49 mm (4.72 x 2.64 x 1.93″) and weighs 404 g (0.89 lb / 14.25 oz) (including batteries). Nikon B700 has external dimensions of 125 x 85 x 107 mm (4.92 x 3.35 x 4.21″) and weighs 565 g (1.25 lb / 19.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony A6300 and the Nikon B700. Sony A6300 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 5mm narrower, 18mm shorter and 58mm thinner than Nikon B700. As you can tell, actually this is not a fair size comparison since Nikon B700 has a built-in lens but Sony A6300 doesn't. Once you put a lens on A6300, its thickness will increase significantly.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony A6300 and Nikon B700.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sony A6300 and Nikon B700.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony A6300 is significantly lighter (161g ) than the Nikon B700 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
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 A6300, the total kit will weigh much higher.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the A6300 has a big advantage over the B700 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony A6300 and Nikon B700's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Sony A6300 features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Nikon B700 sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
