You really didn't give enough info in some ways. If shooting video is
in any way important I wouldn't recommend any Pentax product, but for
stills bang the buck right now deal, KEH.com has refurbished K-30s for
less than $300.00 add the kit lens for about $60 and she's good to go.
B&H has the K-50 in a two lens kit for about $100 more. As for EVIL
cameras, I haven't played with any in a while, but a year ago when I
looked at Fuji Sony and Olympus/Panasonic cameras I thought that Sony
had the best EVF, and the A6000 is the most affordable that still has a
viewfinder. If she doesn't need a large lens selection, their kit
lenses are supposed to be pretty good, better for Video as well.

A friend has asked for advice in purchasing a new camera.
She used a Canon FTb for years. More recently, she has been using a
digital . Yes, I know it's a Canon PowerShot 880. She finds it
convenient but limited, and it was recently damaged and needs to be
replaced with something a bit better but no too expensive. She would
like a comera with interchangeable lenses. She has 2 decent lenses
from her FTb, but I don't think they would work on newer digital
Canons. Rechargeable batteries are preferable to the ones that use
and eat up AAs or similar batteries.
Any suggestions I can pass on?
