[QUOTE="hark, post: 651643, member: 13196"] Some of the older Nikon DSLR's such as the D90 aren't too expensive yet would work well. You could start off teaching how to use one of the auto programs and focus more on composition rather than aperture and shutter. And it would allow him or her to grow with their photographic knowledge where the info about aperture, shutter, and ISO can be introduced. If you go that route, I'd suggest staying away from the D3x00 and D5x00 series. Those won't accept the older AF and AF-D lenses without limitations (AF won't work). However, the older D90 accepts them without any problem. And other bodies prior to the D90 accept them, too, although I'm not sure which ones. There are some decent pre-owned AF and AF-D available. Good luck with whatever you choose! [/QUOTE]
