Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Canon ELPH 190 IS and Nikon S4300 side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Canon ELPH 190 IS has external dimensions of 95 x 57 x 24 mm (3.74 x 2.24 x 0.94″) and weighs 138 g (0.30 lb / 4.87 oz) (including batteries). Nikon S4300 has external dimensions of 96 x 59 x 21 mm (3.78 x 2.32 x 0.83″) and weighs 139 g (0.31 lb / 4.90 oz) (including batteries).

Now lets look at the top view comparison of Canon ELPH 190 IS and Nikon S4300.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon ELPH 190 IS is 1g lighter than the Nikon S4300 but we don't think this will make a significant difference.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot ELPH 190 IS nor Nikon Coolpix S4300 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Nikon S4300's 3.00" LCD screen is slightly larger than Canon ELPH 190 IS's 2.7 screen.
