Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony HX100V is 6g lighter than the Sony HX200V but we don't think this will make a significant difference.

Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX200V nor Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX100V provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
