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 RX100 VII and Leica C-Lux side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony RX100 VII has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 43 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.69″) and weighs 302 g (0.67 lb / 10.65 oz) (including batteries). Leica C-Lux has external dimensions of 113 x 67 x 46 mm (4.45 x 2.64 x 1.81″) and weighs 340 g (0.75 lb / 11.99 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony RX100 VII and the Leica C-Lux. Sony RX100 VII is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 11mm narrower, 9mm shorter and 3mm thinner than Leica C-Lux.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony RX100 VII and Leica C-Lux.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Sony RX100 VII and Leica C-Lux.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony RX100 VII is 38g lighter than the Leica C-Lux but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 VII nor Leica C-Lux 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 RX100 VII and Leica C-Lux's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Sony RX100 VII features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Leica C-Lux has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to RX100 VII.
