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 G3 and Fujifilm XP30 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony G3 has external dimensions of 97 x 59 x 22 mm (3.82 x 2.32 x 0.87″) and weighs 185 g (0.41 lb / 6.53 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm XP30 has external dimensions of 99 x 68 x 24 mm (3.9 x 2.68 x 0.94″) and weighs 165 g (0.36 lb / 5.82 oz) (including batteries).

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm XP30 is 20g lighter than the Sony G3 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the XP30, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the G3.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony G3's 3.50" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm XP30's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
