In my experience I would suggest this... Olympus evolt-e500 with a 14-45 mm lens... and if she gets better than you can add a 45-150mm lens unless you want both for her for focal range. I have photographed thousands of things with this camera and find it is better in preferrable image quality than the $1900.00 worth of professional canon gear I just bought. you can get a kit used for $250.00 and that is the best money could probably buy at her age. It had simple to use funcions and when she learns more she can shoot fully manual with it. and the camera can be completely set up the way she likes. if she likes moving animal type photography, than the burst mode is a plus... bar none the lenses combined with this body have been endearing to me personally technically and emotionally. it is rugged despite a plastic shell, not leinent on amount of controls, and will be photographically and equipment wise 100% totally effecient and dependable... I wouldn't use anything else. except for portraits and sports, that's where I use my canon.
