Maya,
Both Canon and Panasonic make good cameras. When choosing between these two, you really have to ask what you want to do with the camera. I will outline the major differences below (The Panasonic FX01 will be listed first).
Optical Zoom: 3.6x VS 4x
- This will let you zoom in more for better close-ups. Digital zoom will lower the quality of the photos, so I generally don't use it.
Manual Exposure Settings: No VS Yes
- Having the option to set your exposure manually is great as your photography skills advance. You can play with the exposure for different light settings, yielding better pictures at times.
ISO Range: 80-1600 VS 80-800
- A higher ISO setting will let you take sharper photos in lower light settings. Note that the higher ISO setting will also cause "graininess" in photos. This graininess or noise can be reduced with photo editing software.
Based on the differences, I would personally go with the Canon SD700. The more powerful zoom and manual exposure settings are features that I prefer to have. I have also had great luck with the 3 Canon cameras I already own. I hope this helps.
