Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Sony W610 is significantly lighter (318g ) than the Nikon L120 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W610 nor Nikon Coolpix L120 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
Nikon L120's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Sony W610's 2.7" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
