What cheap P&S gives best image quality

Yashica T4 Super.

The Oly Trip 35 is dead easy and just about as sharp as anything out there.

Considering it only has two shutter speeds, it's a remarkable little
point and shoot.

No batteries either. Pretty slick for a very inexpensive little camera designed in 1967.

Ricoh R1. Olympus Trip 35. Both excellent choices. Ricoh can be had cheap-ish (mine was $30), the Trip for the cost of a can of soda.

The Konica Big Mini has a very sharp lens - and the shutter goes as far as 4 sec. great for night shots. Exposure compensation, rather powerful flash for such a small camera, fill flash and macro.

I have a spare Konica Big mini.

Qlympus XA2 with 400ASA film B&W or Colour really delivers and can be picked up for very little money, I have two, 2 Mju 1s, and a Mju 2 but prefer the XA2 you just can't go wrong with it.

Another vote for the Olympus Stylus Epic! (Mju II) I'm seriously in love with mine.
