What digital camera is best for crisp, focused pictures?

I would like to buy a digital camera, preferably $350 (US) or under. The main thing I want is good image quality with crisp focus. I'm just starting photography as a hobby, and being able to focus in very clearly is something I really appreciate. I'm pretty open, brand-wise, although I do like my sister's Olympus that she has.
I know it's more about technique, but believe me, it does depend somewhat on the camera. The camera I have right now is absolute crap and will not focus at all.



Answer
What your looking for is more along the lines of being able to use a camera, and not so much a specific camera.

For something in your price range, try http://www.bhphotovideo.com, and do a search for "advanced digital" cameras, or film SLR cameras.

Research their abilitys, and than do another search for pricing and local providers, and go put the cameras into your hand. You want something that feels comfortable, with the dials and buttons in places that feel good.

Edit:::::::::WIthout seeing a pic, its hard to say why your having focus problems. But, honestly, most people that say they are having focus problems are either moving the camera when the shutter is tripped, or are not shooting with enough light to get the camera to set the right focus (assuming your using auto focus). Try using a tripod, and make sure your using your camera's features within its capabilitys.

Anyway, most of the advanced digital cameras in that search will have more features, to adjust most settings, and have a hotshoe for flash or for off camera flash work. They just dont have interchangeable lenses, like SLR's, along with some other differences.

Look up Canon S5 IS.

What flash setting do you use for normal pictures (on a digital camera)?

Ok, dumb question. I have a Canon Powershot SD790 digital camera and there are several different flash settings, but they all look weird. If there is a flash, it is waaaay too bright. If there isn't a flash, the pictures come out grainy. It isn't the camera's fault! I just don't know how anything about photography!


Answer
Flash is one of the most common features used on cameras with built-in flash units. But flash is a four-letter word to those who battle the dreaded problem of red-eye caused by direct flash. Red-eye occurs because the flash unit on many cameras is so close to the axis of the lens and when the flash fires, it fires directly into the subjectâs eyes and bounces back.

All of us are going to need an additional light source from time to time, such as when taking photographs at night or indoors. But there are other times too when using flash can be appropriate. Fill-in flash is a term for when photographers use extra light on a subject in order to bring out the brightness and color of the image. Sometimes during a setting where it is too bright, such as in direct sunlight, the image turns out a little bland or drab and adding light either through use of a built-in flash or a flashgun can improve the overall image. Using flash in strong sunlight fills in the shadows on the subject.
External flash units can be attached to your camera and provide more powerful lighting than built-in flash units. They also offer a greater degree of control over where you can direct the light from the flash, sometimes with a head that tilts and/or swivels. External flash units are sometimes called flash guns and run the gamut of prices depending on how sophisticated they are. The risk of red-eye is reduced when using external flash units because they sit up higher on the camera than built-in flashes. Also, because the lighting again isnât coming directly from the camera, but from above or to the side of the camera, depending on where you attached the external flash unit, the lighting bounces and looks more natural.
