Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DC-LX100 II nor Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II 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
Panasonic LX100 II and Canon G5 X MII's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon G5 X MII features a
Tilting screen where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels whereas the Panasonic LX100 II has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to G5 X MII.
