Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Ricoh PX is significantly lighter (343g ) than the Panasonic LZ20 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the PX, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the LZ20.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Panasonic LZ20's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Ricoh PX's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
