Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Kodak FZ55 is significantly lighter (33g ) than the Nikon S4300 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Kodak Pixpro FZ55 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 Kodak FZ55's 2.7 screen.
Unfortunately, both cameras has fixed screens so they don't tilt or flip in directions.
