Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Panasonic ZS70 is 5g lighter than the Panasonic ZS80 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS70 (Lumix DC-TZ90) nor Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS80 (Lumix DC-TZ95) provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

Panasonic ZS70 and Panasonic ZS80's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
Both cameras feature
Tilting screens where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels.
