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 WX500 and Fujifilm F800EXR side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Sony WX500 has external dimensions of 102 x 58 x 36 mm (4.02 x 2.28 x 1.42″) and weighs 236 g (0.52 lb / 8.32 oz) (including batteries). Fujifilm F800EXR has external dimensions of 105 x 63 x 36 mm (4.13 x 2.48 x 1.42″) and weighs 232 g (0.51 lb / 8.18 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Sony WX500 and the Fujifilm F800EXR.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Sony WX500 and Fujifilm F800EXR.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm F800EXR is 4g lighter than the Sony WX500 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX500 nor Fujifilm FinePix F800EXR 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 WX500 and Fujifilm F800EXR's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Sony WX500 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 Fujifilm F800EXR has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to WX500.
