How about an older generation DSLR. Put it on a tripod, pick a program
mode and control it with a wired remote. A DS or DS2 would be plenty
good for what he wants, both have jacks for a wired remote and could
probably be purchased for a pittance.

I'm trawling the great collective wisdom of the PDML for a mate of mine who
has MS and has lost the dexterity to handle today's small p&s cameras. He's
got a load of stuff to sell and wants to photograph it to put on eBay.
Has anyone got any ideas of what might suit him? I guess lightweight but
with chunky controls. The way he put it was "I need the camera equivalent
of those phones they do for the elderly/disabled with big, clear,
manageable buttons, if such a thing exists". I suspect he will also have a
fairly tight budget.
Any off the wall / quirky / bright ideas appreciated.
Cheers, Chris
