Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.

Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon S4000 is significantly lighter (59g ) than the Canon D10 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
With its weather-sealed body, we believe that the D10 has a big advantage over the S4000 which doesn't provide any kind of environmental sealing.
LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S4000's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon D10's 2.5" screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
