The Touch was unveiled very close to the FP7 and they are both of a similar generation. Each of these cameras feature the same body design (Ultracompact).

Before getting into a more detailed comparison, here is a short highlight of how the Touch grades against the FP7 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Following is a preview of the gallery photos for Kodak EasyShare Touch and Panasonic Lumix DMC-FP7. The full galleries are available at Kodak Touch Gallery and Panasonic FP7 Gallery.

If you're looking to lug around your camera frequently, you're going to have to take into account its weight and volume.

Quite often, its hard to picture the difference between sensor measurements just by checking a spec sheet. The photograph below will provide you a far better sense of the sensor sizing in the Touch and FP7.

Clearly, both the cameras come with different resolutions and different sensor measurements. The Touch with its tinier sensor is going to make getting shallower DOF harder and the Panasonic FP7 will give more detail having an extra 2MP. Higher resolution can also help you crop photographs a good deal more aggressively.
