The FH22 was manufactured 4 years prior to the WG-10 which is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. Each of these cameras have the same body design (Compact).

Before getting right into a in depth comparison, here is a short introduction of how the FH22 matches up versus the WG-10 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall mark.

Following is a sample of the gallery pictures for Panasonic Lumix DMC-FH22 and Pentax WG-10. The entire galleries are provided at Panasonic FH22 Gallery and Pentax WG-10 Gallery.

If you're going to travel with your camera, you should factor in its weight and measurements.

Typically, it's tough to visualise the contrast between sensor dimensions only by reading through technical specs. The pic below will give you a better sense of the sensor sizing in the FH22 and WG-10.

As you have seen, both of the cameras provide the same sensor dimensions and the identical megapixels so you should expect similar quality of photos however you would want to consider the release date of the products into consideration. The more aged FH22 is going to be disadvantaged with regard to sensor innovation.
