Product Description

A compact, lightweight digital still camera with 4.0 effective megapixels and a powerful 3x zoom lens, the COOLPIX 4300 is an easy-to-use mid-range model with superior image quality. The camera's core users include everybody from beginners to advanced amateurs. It is ideal for those who want a high-quality camera that takes exceptional pictures. People seeking a deeper experience with digital photography will be attracted to the COOLPIX 4300's portability and image quality. Superb optical performance, a big part of the COOLPIX 4300's appeal, is delivered via a 3x optical Zoom-Nikkor lens with an 8-24mm focal range (equivalent to 38-114mm in 35mm [135] camera format). Its 4.0 effective megapixels provide ultrahigh definition and, combined with Nikon's advanced image processing technology, ensure images of remarkable color, contrast and clarity. Shooting is further simplified by general-use AUTO mode and 12 different Scene Modes, which allow users to capture the essence of every situation and fully experience the fun and convenience of digital photography.The COOLPIX 4300's compact and lightweight design makes it extremely portable and its ergonomic, easy-grip design ensures easy operation. Managing pictures has never been easier, thanks to features like one-button data transfer and a Small Picture function that configures photos specifically for e-mail and Internet applications. The camera comes equipped with all the accessories necessary to immediately start taking better digital photographs. An array of optional accessories - such as an adapter that accepts Wideangle, Telephoto, Fisheye, and other lenses - will further any photographer's journey into the digital world. With so many features and accessories, and a remarkably easy-to-use design, the COOLPIX 4300 both advances the impact of Nikon's successful COOLPIX line and promises to bring the thrill of digital photography to more people than ever before.

Amazon.com Review

The Nikon Coolpix 4300 packs a lot into its tiny frame: a 4-megapixel CCD, a 3x optical zoom (4x digital), and an excellent list of high-end features. It's also easy to grip and can be used entirely with one hand--for right-handers at least (as usual, southpaws will just have to get used to the design).

We were able to adjust the saturation, white balance, and noise reduction of our images even before taking a shot. The 1.5-inch LCD is smaller than average, but the bright and crisp panel was clearly visible in anything but direct sunlight.

The 4300's image quality duly impressed us--crisp, bright colors that stood up to 11-by-17-inch enlargements. You can also capture 40-second video clips, although they're silent movies. We appreciated the Best Shot Selector feature, which let us snap up to 10 quick pictures and then have the Nikon cull out the best one for us.

We were able to get over 90 minutes of use out of the rechargeable lithium-ion battery, although we had to remove it for recharging. This design works well for an optional backup battery; however, you'll need a fully-charged battery ready to go. Nikon includes a 16 MB CompactFlash card, but you'll want to upgrade early on--high-resolution images and video clips fill 16 MB rapidly.

One minor caveat: if we turned the camera on with the lens cap in place, the 4300 would flash a message telling us about it. Removing the lens cap didn't work, and we had to turn the camera off and back on to clear the message and get started.

For the price, the Coolpix 4300 delivers a lot of megapixels and excellent image quality. If you're planning on upgrading to a high-end digital camera, plan a stop right here. --J. Curtis

Pros:

Bright, crisp images
High-end features
Easy-to-hold design

Cons:

Have to remove battery to recharge
Lens cap irritation

Amazon.com Product Description

Don't be fooled by the small size of the powerful Nikon Coolpix 4300 digital camera. With a 4-megapixel CCD, the Coolpix 4300 brings home high-definition photos of all your adventures and special moments. It features a 3x optical zoom, a built-in flash, a bright, full-color LCD monitor, and 12 versatile scene modes. The Coolpix 4300 even records movies, and is fully compatible with optional Nikon Coolpix converter lenses and accessories.

Optics and Resolution
The Coolpix 4300 is essentially a 4-megapixel update to Nikon's popular Coolpix 885, which was nicely effective in both point-and-shoot and manual control modes. It can capture images up to 2,272 x 1,704 pixels, providing enough pixels for easy cropping and producing quality prints to 11 by 14 inches and beyond. It boasts a Nikkor lens with 3x optical zoom, plus a 4x digital zoom (for a 12x total).

Storage and Transfer
With the Coolpix 4300, images are stored on Type I CompactFlash memory cards--a 16 MB starter card is provided and we recommend purchasing a higher-capacity memory card. Connect the Coolpix 4300 to your computer and press the transfer button on the back for a fast, easy, one-touch upload for editing or for uploading to a photo-sharing Web site. Images are downloaded to either a Mac or PC via a USB connection.

Movie Mode
In movie mode, the Coolpix 4300 captures video clips (with no audio) at 15 frames per second at a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels. You can record a movie of up to 40 seconds in length. The QuickTime Motion JPEG format offers a limited resolution, which is great for capturing a short movie that can be e-mailed to friends and family, but is no replacement for a true camcorder.

More Features
The Coolpix 4300 comes with an auto mode as well as 12 scene modes, which can help you capture great photos in virtually any shooting situation. They include portrait, night portrait, landscape, sunset, fireworks show, and backlight. In full manual mode, you can choose shutter speed and aperture (f2.8-f13.4). Shutter-speed choices range from 8 seconds to 1/1,000 second. There is also a bulb mode with a maximum shutter speed of 60 seconds (tripod and remote shutter release cable strongly recommended).

Other features include:

Exclusive 256-segment matrix metering helps you get great exposures in the most difficult lighting situations.
Fully compatible with optional Nikon Coolpix converter lenses, adapters, and accessories (requires UR-E4 converter adapter).
Built-in flash with red-eye reduction and slow sync.
1.5-inch LCD monitor with up to a 6x zoom, which is useful for checking focus.

Power, Size, and Contents
The Coolpix 4300 is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery (included). The camera measures 3.7 by 2.7 by 2.0 inches and weighs 8 ounces without batteries. This package includes the Coolpix 4300 digital camera, 16 MB XD card, EN-EL1 rechargeable lithium-ion battery and charger, AV and USB cables, wrist strap, lens cap and strap, printed instruction manual, and a CD-ROM with NikonView 5 image-editing software for Mac (OS 9 and OS X) and PC (Windows 98, Me, 2000, and XP).

Pretty good overall digital camera.......2007-07-10

This camera is light weight and fairly smart with the auto-flash. I recommend using the highest photo quality (Fine) to approach film-like quality of moderate enlargements. Do buy a 256MB or larger CF card as the included card fills up rapidly. At the highest quality level (Fine), a 256MB card will hold about 300 photographs at 1600x1200. The actual picture, which is represented on the LCD, is larger than what is shown through the viewfinder at all optical zoom levels.

It is fairly easy to change between photographic modes in SCENE and take several shots of the same scene in fairly quick succession to compare how they treat the same light conditions. The digital zoom works well on horizontally/vertically linear objects such as text or buildings, but not so well on non-linear objects such as mountains.

The low battery warning icon comes on when the battery is about 1/3 depleted, but carrying a spare battery which is fully charged will get you nearly 3 hours of continuous photographing. My replacement/spare battery depletes at a slightly slower rate than the battery included with the camera.

My one problem/complaint is with the hyperactive auto-focus. In all of the modes I use, except Landscape, I have to semi-depress the shutter button for it to stop focusing back and forth through the object I am trying to photograph. The camera tends to focus through close objects, even in Close-up mode, and bring the background into focus instead of the flower/butterfly/bird/etc. that is the center and dominating portion of the image I am composing.

Very slow camera.......2007-05-09

I have this camera for 3 years. The image quality is OK, optics are good. Battery life is good. Now 3 years later cameras have bigger displays, but thats not a negative point for this camera as it came out in a time this size was usual.

The big bad thing with this camera is its respond time, and this really makes the good things pretty useless. It needs about 1-2 seconds from the moment I hit the shoot button until it actually takes the picture, and I have had so much occasion with peoples, where this ruined the take. Specially with kids, you have a good moment and shoot, but the picture is taken long after the good moment passed away. Also the time the camera needs to save the image after the take is extremely slow, there go other 10 good moments until the cam is ready again. Maybe the save file time can be shortened with a better highspeed flash card, the one I use is a standard card. But it will still be too much time to save the image. I am going now purchasing a Canon Powershot A710.

I left my Coolpix, but I'm goin' back!.......2006-08-13

I loved my Coolpix, but being a gaget geek, I kept looking for bigger and better-more zoom, more pixels. I gave my beat up and battered baby to my teenage son, and "upgraded" to a camera I had researched as better. A year later, I am scrambling to get myself another Coolpix. My son uses it like crazy, and won't give it back. My mother, who is in her 60's and can't figure out how that mouse thing on the computer works, can operate it with no problems. My son won't give it to her, either. It will be a sad day when this model is no longer available.
One con: watch the battery door, this model has a bad habit of loosening at the battery door latch, which weakens the contact and causes battery life to decline drastically. Extra batteries on hand and duct tape pretty much will solve that, but that tape does make the camera a little less pretty!

Good Camera.......2005-11-13

Plus's:Very good camera...easy to grip, good pictures at night.
Minus's:red-eye, longer time from one picture to another.

Despite Its' Faults..........2005-07-30

This camera was my "step up" from a 2 megapixel camera. My first camera was also a CoolPix. Yes, this camera does have deficits (i.e., shutter lag time which is not great for kid shots). But at this current price, you will be very pleased with the quality of the end product. Although I do use manual controls, I have had fabulous results with Auto. I have taken pictures of my laughing, flailing grandson in the bathtub and the vividness and accuracy of water droplets and moving water is stupendous. I would rate this camera as "beginner." I have learned to select a camera which is beyond my capabilites. With rapid, advancing technology, the 4300 is in this category for the novice shootist who is interested in quality photos and quality product which can be edited in Photoshop Elements.

bang for the buck.......2005-10-10

I've been using the same pair for 3,5 years almost daily...and they have taken their share of rather abusive use being twisted, yanked, stuffed in-and-out of bags, purses, etc. For a price below 10$, these earphones are amazingly durable. True, they don't have much bass, but then - I'm not a fan of booming noise in my ears. So, for those who prefer to actually hear the finest tunes and words of music/movies/speech, these are perfect. As for the fit, earphones are comfortable, but might be a bit too big for people with really small ears. Overall, a good bargain for the price.

Junky.......2004-02-17

I'm glad I did not pay much for these, because I threw them away after two uses. I bought them to save space in my carry-on during my last vacation. I should have stuck with bigger ones that worked better. I could not get the bud to stay in my ear, even the over-ear clip did not help - these things are made for people with HUGE ears.

No bass!.......2003-10-23

I was hoping these would be decent for wearing while running but I'm already really disappointed after listening to them for five minutes. They have no bass. They don't come close to the random Sony earbuds I have sitting on my desk at work - even when plugging into my laptop's cruddy headphone jack the difference between them is huge and unacceptable. Without bass they just accentuate the flaws in compressed audio.

Ergonomically they might be comfortable, but I haven't logged the time to tell. They certainly feel like they'll stay on through most activities.

Uncomfortable.......2003-07-16

The speakers don't stay snug against your ear canal, and the ear clip is uncomfortable. Bad design.

Dependable Basic Camera Ensures Memories in Print.......2000-06-23

I bought this inexpensive basic camera for those times when I wanted to take a camera along yet did want to have to be real careful with it-- i.e. no huge monetary loss if something happened. The pictures were so great I bought another as a "client loaner" for my clients (I am an attorney) to ensure taking of evidentiary pictures. The product yields above-average quality pictures and we have used them repeatedly as evidentiary documents. It is also very easy to load. I have no doubt I got my money's worth.

don't buy this one!.......2006-04-04

my son got this 2 years ago when he was a year old. it was always on a shelf and controlled by an adult. the first one we had didn't work straight out of the box. we exchanged it for another one, but it hasn't worked all that great either. it played some cd's and not others (none of our cd's were damaged). the cd player finally just stopped working. looking for a new one that actually works.

Love the juke box.......2005-01-04

I purchased one for my son and he loves is! We take it everywhere. Lite-weight easy to use. I definately recomend.

Don't Buy.......2004-12-30

We purchased this cd player for our child and the music quality was so apalling we had to return it - twice - thinking the first one was a fluke. That says a lot, as we didn't have high standards for the required sound quality (it's for a 21 month old). Our biggest issue was the static that played right along with the music.

trash.......2004-11-27

We had ours about 5 mo months and the CD player no longer works. The radio works, however we bought it as a CD player. We're looking for a new one..

Will be returning the SECOND one!.......2004-09-01

We purchased this cd player for our son to listen to at night at bedtime. It appealed to us because it seemed to be built pretty tough and seemed to be un-cluttered and easy enough for a four year old to use. It never worked quite right. Most of the time it did not work at all. It finally just stopped working and Target exchanged it for us without any problem. After about six months, the replacement unit is now not working. This time I hope that Target will just refund us. Pass this one up.

Great Value.......2003-01-09

I am a technology educator and I have had this system in my home for over 6 months. Bottom line - it runs great. You get a lot of features for the money. I bought mine at a local retailer on sale for [sale price]and have been pleased with its performance. The quality of this systems hardware has been very good. In fact it seems no worse than the Dells I work with everyday with teachers and students. The CPU case is easy to open and access.

Let's be honest, other than a car you will never spend more money on something that will be more worthless than technology. This system is a good overall value that will provide you with years of solid production and online research capabilities without breaking the bank.

The Reason why is called 1900+ (same as Penium4 1.9GHZ).......2002-08-29

This computer runs same speed as Penium 4 1.9Ghz that is why is called 1900+
AMD makes diffrent CPU technology, many people are not aware that AMD makes faster CPU than Intel.
AMD makes more operation per cycle, that's why AMD MHZ does not corespond to Itel MHZ.
The point is AMD(model# 1900) runs same as Intel 1900GHZ.
I am very happy with this computer, in multimedia this CPU runs even faster from P4 1.9GHZ.
Made bechmarks thats why.
Highly recomanded, and some people should do more studies about these two CPUs, beacuse MHZ is not everything.

Be warned not 1.9 GHZ!.......2002-06-03

One warning: this is a "Model 1900" but it is not 1900 MHZ. No it is 1600 MHZ. How do they get away with this? Beats me. Now for that price 1600 MHZ is a good deal, but I hate deceptive advertising.

Poor quality.......2002-05-26

My brother bought one directly from Compaq but otherwise its the same model. The hard drive sounds like a airplane flying by it's so loud. The case looks neat but it is cheaply put together. The power buttom came loose after a few days and jammed back and has to be unjammed with a screw driver. This happens constantly. Hopefully it will get fixed because he had to send it back because the cpu died. And I mean died, you could even smell smoke. Aparently the fan came loose in shipping and it fell off after a while. The cpu overheated and that was it!

If I were you I wouldn't buy this machine.

Athlon XP 1900.......2002-04-24

Super deal! Really great value with windows XP, and 256 MB memory and Athlon XP, could not find better deal. I have been using this computer for the last 10 days, and I am amazed with it. Fast 16x writeable cd! And huge 40 GB store hard drive, I have 4 movies on the hard rive and still lots of room for music and programs. Compaq makes really great products with stylish cases. Very fast computer there is no reason to pay more money for computer, because with this speed is already too fast for most applications, internet, and games. Athlon XP works great with windows XP; you just have to buy it to see. I give 5 out of 5, for this system and I highly recommend to everybody!!!

Product Description

Every car or truck has wasted space. You know, the places behind or beneath the seats where loose change and French fries hide. Those spaces are crying for bass. MTX Audio responds with ThunderForm vehicle-specific subwoofer enclosures.On amplified ThunderForm models, MTX Audio has added an on-board, 200-watt, Class-D amplifier. The amp is highly efficient, and has been designed specifically for the subwoofer in the enclosure. You get deep, low bass, without having to wire in a separate amplifier. MTX Audio's "Smart-Engage" Circuitry (patent pending) eliminates the need to remove your factory head-unit during most installations (now, if you don't know how much time that feature alone will save you, just go sit in your car, and imagine having to tear out the whole dash... and really hope you don't snap any of the clips in there).Amplified ThunderForm models feature a proprietary woofer design utilizing a .35 ohm for single woofer, (.7 ohm in parallel for dual woofer), long excursion voice coil. This design takes full advantage of the efficiency of Class D amplifier design while delivering powerful, low frequency extension. Add all of these features up, along with over voltage, over current, and voice coil short protection, and you have a unit that looks and operates like it came as an original part of the vehicle.
