Point and shoot digicams (1 Viewer)

Been digiscoping since 2002, basically point and shooting down my scope. My beloved Coolpix S220 broke earlier this year (lens stayed in) so I replaced it with a Coolpix S3000 thinking it was a straight forward swap. How wrong was I! I think the main problem is that it takes ages to take a photo, so most are blurred. I've resorted to videoing most birds now as I've lost all confidence it in. Birds I could nail with my S220 I'm missing with my new camera. Worse is I can't take basic family shots with it now either. Just not pin sharp and the flash flashes before the photo is taken, so indoor pics are a no-no. Any advice. I've tried all focus settings, all speed settings but still no joy. Videos are great on it tho. If I do give up, any recommendations for another cam?

Most of the current popular cameras are covered in these threads. I'm enjoying the Nikon P330 and Sony RX 100 and like the Nikon V1/V2 as well. The P330 is very good value for money.
