Take into consideration, the weight of an ILC will differ depending on the lens you are employing at the time. Underneath is the front view scale comparison of the G3 X versus the JV200.

Taking into account dimensions and weight, the portability score of the G3 X and JV200 is 60 and 96 respectively.

Normally, it is tough to envision the contrast in sensor sizes purely by researching technical specs. The picture below will provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the G3 X and JV200.

As you can tell, both of these cameras enjoy different resolutions and different sensor sizes. The G3 X with its larger sensor will make getting shallower DOF easier and the Canon G3 X will provide you with greater detail using its extra 6 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also make it easier to crop images far more aggressively. The newer G3 X is going to have an edge in sensor tech.
