Fujifilm X-A7 vs Fujifilm X-T100: Physical Specs and Body features Comparison
Size and weight is a big decision factor when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs. In this section, We are going to illustrate Fujifilm X-A7 and Fujifilm X-T100 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Fujifilm X-A7 has external dimensions of 119 x 68 x 41 mm [4.69 x 1.5 x 1.61″] and weighs 320 g [0.71 lb / 11.29 oz] [including batteries]. Fujifilm X-T100 has external dimensions of 121 x 83 x 47 mm [4.76 x 3.27 x 1.85″] and weighs 448 g [0.99 lb / 15.80 oz] [including batteries].
Below you can see the front view size comparison of Fujifilm X-A7 and Fujifilm X-T100. Fujifilm X-A7 is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 2mm narrower, 15mm shorter and 6mm thinner than Fujifilm X-T100.
Here is the back view size comparison of Fujifilm X-A7 and Fujifilm X-T100.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Fujifilm X-A7 and Fujifilm X-T100.
Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day. Fujifilm X-A7 is significantly lighter [128g ] than the Fujifilm X-T100 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
