Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Kodak FZ55 is significantly lighter (185g ) than the Canon SX160 IS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Kodak Pixpro FZ55 nor Canon PowerShot SX160 IS 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 SX160 IS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Kodak FZ55's 2.7 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
