Is the Minolta DiMAGE S304 worth buying used?

Minolta DiMAGE S304 is worth judging as its own Minolta DiMAGE S-series body, not just as a generic old compact. Start with condition, the exact battery/card setup, and whether its look fits what you want to shoot.
What owners like
Minolta DiMAGE S304 works best when you want simple snapshots, direct flash, and the relaxed character people look for in older digital compacts rather than a technically perfect modern camera; its compact CCD sensor and 35-140mm equivalent, 4x optical zoom are the main character of the look.
Common complaints
Check the lens movement, flash, screen, buttons, and card door calmly before relying on it; older compact bodies can need a little patience without being a bad buy.
What to compare
Compare it with Minolta DiMAGE S404, Minolta DiMAGE S414, Minolta DiMAGE E201, Minolta DiMAGE 2300 to decide whether you want this exact body, a cheaper nearby compact, or a slightly more capable alternative.
