Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS100 is 25g lighter than the Panasonic ZS300 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS100 (Lumix DMC-TZ100) nor Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS300 (Lumix DC-TZ300) 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 ZS100 and Panasonic ZS300's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
