Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic TS5 is 1g lighter than the Nikon S9300 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.

Panasonic TS5 and Nikon S9300's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
