Camera      W     x  H    x  D (mm)  Wt (g)
ME           131    x 82.5 x 49.5        460
ME Super 131.5 x 83    x 49.5        445
MX          135.8  x 82.5 x 49.3       495
LX           144.5  x 90.5 x 50          570 (for reference)
K2           144     x 92    x 57          680 (for reference)

Yup, the MX is a whole 5mm (~0.169in) wider than ME.

Camera      Viewfinder Mag   [Cov]
ME                             0.95 x [92%]
ME Super                   0.95 x [92%]
MX                            0.97 x [95%]
LX                              *** x [98%] (for reference)
K2                             0.88 x [95%] (for reference)

*** Depends on viewfinder used.
