Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.

Weather Sealing
Both the FE-5020 and the TG-2 iHS have weather sealings in their bodies, making them resistant to water and dust.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus TG-2 iHS's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Olympus FE-5020's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
