Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 340 HS (IXUS 265 HS) nor Canon PowerShot ELPH 140 IS (IXUS 150) 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
Canon ELPH 340 HS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon ELPH 140 IS's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
