Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Casio EX-G1 is significantly lighter (441g ) than the Canon SX50 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the EX-G1, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the SX50 HS.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon SX50 HS's 2.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Casio EX-G1's 2.5" screen.
Moreover, Canon SX50 HS sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. On the other hand, Casio EX-G1 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX50 HS.
