Price Paid:  $250.00 from Nikon warranty

Summary:
Nikon coughed up the 4300 to replace the 3200? that had no viewfinder and took crappy shots. With that I was pleased. Overall, it's a great camera that fits my needs of small size, manual operation from time to time, and flexibility of operational controls.

Strengths:
size, versatility, software included like Adobe Elements, feel, and a 2 year warranty.

Weaknesses:
16M card, slow shutter speed, samll LCD window, non-intuitive menu.

Price Paid:  $600.00 from Second-hand

Summary:
Bought it used - black body with x2 teleconverter and 128MB CF Very nice camera, gives great results. As any point-and-shoot, has its limitations. Though I'm using Nikon now, at this level I'd recommend buying Canon or Sony

Strengths:
Nice looking and compact. Takes great colorful pictures. Nice feature set. Has (optional) teleconverters x2/x3.

Weaknesses:
Relatively show focusing/writing/aperture

Price Paid:  $450.00 from can't remember

Summary:
A few years ago I purchased the 2 MB version of this camera and had been happy with it. When it was stolen last year, I bought the 4300. It had some nice improvements (speed mostly), but the colors were less bright and the focus was much worse. Sometimes this camera takes very nice pictures, but sometimes it doesn't (random I think, due to the focus). Additionally, there are a variety of situations in which it consistently doesn't perform well. It doesn't focus well in low light, and even if it does, everything has a blue cast. If you don't use the flash, everything looks extremely orange.

Strengths:
Scene modes are good for the non-advanced. Sometimes takes good shots. Good website.

Weaknesses:
Flash weak. Night focus terrible. Flash gives everything blue cast.
