Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Samsung TL205 is significantly lighter (418g ) than the Canon SX50 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Samsung TL205 (PL100) nor Canon PowerShot SX50 HS 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
Canon SX50 HS's 2.80" LCD screen is slightly larger than Samsung TL205's 2.7" screen.
Moreover, Canon SX50 HS sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. On the other hand, Samsung TL205 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX50 HS.
