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

LCD Screen Size and Features
Olympus TG-6's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Panasonic FH2's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
