Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm XP70 is significantly lighter (416g ) than the Pentax X-5 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Thanks to the weather-sealed body of the XP70, you can use this camera with more confidence under conditions where there is risk of exposure to water and dust compared to the X-5.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Pentax X-5's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm XP70's 2.7 screen.
In addition to the size advantage, Pentax X-5 LCD screen also has a
Tilting feature where you can change the angle of the screen to make it easier to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels. On the other hand, Fujifilm XP70 has a fixed type screen which provides less flexibility in shooting positions compared to X-5.
