to make a camera always point at something.

be sure the camera is the selected object.
Ojbect menu ---> point at
You will get the heirarchy list.
Scroll to the item you want as the target.
Click on OK

Note that in the camera controls editor there is a small key. If this is gray, your camera will animate, that is, as the animation proceedes the camera will move, point, change focal lenght, ect. according to keyframes. If it is RED, it will not move. I'm not sure how the "point at" trick interacts with the animate/don't animate. You'll have to experiment.

You can "spin dials" to move/point the camera or change the values by clicking on them and typing the number desired., no problem.
