Need to buy a new digital camera

Check this shit out.

http://my3dscanner.com/index.php

Quote:

My3DScanner is a free on-line service that creates 3D models directly from ordinary digital photographs.

Take photos of any object or scene, upload them to this site and receive dense, color, 3D point cloud data completely free of charge.

This service automatically generates mesh from point cloud data and creates 3D polygonal model.






Quote:

You can use any digital camera or mobile phone with a min. 2 MP resolution. Anything with more than 5 MP will not help but will not hurt either.  Anything with less resolution may not be enough for a good quality scan.

Use normal wide angle lenses (20, 24 or 28 mm). Fish-eye or telescopic lenses are not supported.




Quote:

  Photograph with the maximum depth of field possible.  Do not use “portrait” mode (sharp object and blurred background). Use the maximum shutter speed. To compensate for longer exposure make sure the light is good and the camera is stable.



·        You can use zoom, but at advanced level. In the beginning set zoom to minimum, i.e. your field view should be as wide as possible. Move forward to an object instead of zooming it in.



·        Blur pictures will kill your scan. Blur is usually a result of camera motion. Your photographs must be sharp. Since you have to use minimum aperture, exposure may be long, increasing the risk of camera movement. To lower the risk, use very good lighting and use a stand where possible.



·        Strong but ambient light is the best. The less shadows that are on the object, the better. Remember, you scan only what you see. If a part of an object is obscured from all view-points or is in shadow, this part will appear as a hole in the scan. You can use a flash if the lighting is not good, but be consistent: if you start with the flash, do the whole scan with it.



·        Use as low ISO as possible. You do not need noisy photos – all the noise will appear in your scan!




Any suggestions for a <$100 camera that would be ideal for this?

Any will do. Second hand is an option too. The requirements this services poses are matched by literally every digital camera that is on the market today.

I want something that has manual features. In other words, I want to turn off anything "automatic" and set everything manually.

That eliminates quite some models, especially in that price range...Do you prefer any specific brand? Not that it matters any at this price level, but some people have strong preferences in this respect.

No preference to brand. Just good quality pictures, and a camera that will let me control focus and white balance, and ISO and shutter speed, etc...

I mean, I would want that for this, right?

Autofocus is usually ok, white balance control is definitely an advantage in this application, and ISO control is present on just about every camera I have come across, which is also true for exposure control. You don't actually need full manual control, although it may come in handy to ensure similar exposure in an array of images. You could look into the IXUS line of cameras produced by Canon, for example. Or just keep an eye on any specials of your favorite online of brick&mortar store :shrug:

Look for a secondhand canon powershot compact. They are good and have all manual settings you probably want.
