I think only Sony offers this feature in the "consumer" range. I 
review cameras on a freelance basis for CNET and I've seen a few 
Sony's with this feature. I am quite sure the PC330 from Sony offers 
single frame as well as the TRV80, these cameras are in the $1000 
range, the upper end of single chip consumer cameras. The cheaper 
TRV39 I think has it, but it lacks interval recording, which will 
automatically take a single frame or a short burst every X seconds or 
minutes (like to get a flower opening etc.). Check out these models 
and those models around these models in the product line. Go down the 
line until the features you want knock out so that you aren't buying 
more than you need.
