Weight is another important factor especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic FZ80 is 71g lighter than the Fujifilm HS30EXR but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ80 (Lumix DMC-FZ82) nor Fujifilm FinePix HS30EXR provides any type of weather sealing in their body, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic FZ80 and Fujifilm HS30EXR's LCD screens has the same diagonal size of 3".
On the other hand, Fujifilm HS30EXR 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 FZ80 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to HS30EXR.
