Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 530 HS (IXUS 510 HS) nor Olympus Stylus XZ-10 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Canon ELPH 530 HS's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus XZ-10's 3" screen.
