Problem with Camera Movement

I am working on a film title sequence in AE 6.5 and am running into major problems with the camera movement. I am animating the position and the point of interest of the camera together. The problem is: when i arrive at my titles and want the camera to sit still for a moment, it still sways back and forth even when the next keyframes are exact duplicates (i am not using easy ease). Any advice is greatly appreciated - my deadline was yesterday!! thank you.

This will get rid of the drifting without having to resort to linear interpolation:
Go to the keyframes where the camera motion is supposed to STOP -- not the set of keyframes where motion is to resume. Highlight them, and invoke the "Toggle Hold Keyframe" command.
The camera will now ease to a stop, stay rock solid, and ease back into motion when AE encounters the next set of keyframes... which have the identical value as the first set.
