tindo, there are a number of digital cameras that can be manually focused, as well as a number of different ways of semi-manually focusing.

just about any SLR camera, digital or film, will have the option of clicking over to manual focus.

most point-and-shoot cameras will be auto only, but will let you lock in the focus by pushing the shutter release halfway. then you can move closer to or farther from the subejct to adjust a little bit.

and of course, the more expensive cameras have all sorts of different programs to assist the autofocus in determining what you're trying to focus on, some of which pretty cool, provided you're trying to focus on what the camera thinks you're trying to focus.
