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 HX400V and Canon SX60 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony HX400V has external dimensions of 130 x 93 x 103 mm (5.1 x 3.67 x 4.06″) and weighs 660 g (1.46 lb / 23.28 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX60 HS has external dimensions of 128 x 93 x 114 mm (5.04 x 3.66 x 4.49″) and weighs 650 g (1.43 lb / 22.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony HX400V and the Canon SX60 HS.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony HX400V and Canon SX60 HS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sony HX400V and Canon SX60 HS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX60 HS is 10g lighter than the Sony HX400V but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX400V nor Canon PowerShot SX60 HS 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
Sony HX400V and Canon SX60 HS's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Sony HX400V features a
Tilting-only screen which is mostly only good for shooting from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Canon SX60 HS sports a
Fully Articulated screen which is more flexible and useful, especially for taking selfies and video.
