Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony TX20 is significantly lighter (41g ) than the Canon A1400 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the TX20 has a big advantage over the A1400 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Sony TX20's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon A1400's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
