What cheap digital SLR's...

What cheap digital SLR's have manual focusing so I can
chose the focus point.

the cheapest dslr you will find is a canon 300D (digital
rebel, not the XT, which is the 350D), probably for around
$600.00. you'll just slide the button on whatever lens you
choose to use from AF to MF.

a way to get around autofocus on whatever you're currently
using is to just push your shutter button halfway down while
autofocusing on whatever subject you are shooting -- you'll
probably have to put it in the middle -- and then recompose
with the button still halfway down.

a digital SLR without manual focusing. that'd be the
surprise of the year for me!

get a 350d/xt for looks (hottest dslr around)

or a nikon d50/d70

Pick up an old film SLR and stick a digital back on it. I've
heard this is a good cheap option.
