Are there any digicams out there with manual focus?

I was just wondering because I'll have to say that has to be the biggest disappointment with my Toshiba M60. I find that too many times the auto focus picks out something in the foreground and homes in on that.

my olympus c2100 has the option to do it. I have never used it. There's a couple of autofocus modes on it, one normally works. Plus the work around which is to find something else about as far away and lock it on that.

Sure are. I have the Sony DSC-F707. It has manual focus.

It's never as accurate as autofocus, though.

Thanks. Next time around I'll have to more investigation before I buy, although I did get this camera a sweet deal of $175 about a year ago. That was pretty good for a 2.3MP, 2.3X then.

most if not all of the sub $200 digital cameras are solely auto focus...

My 4mpixel Olympus D-40 does it. Been to lazy to read the manual to find out how it works though. :p
