Let's start with your budget--what do you want to spend for a camera with starter lens?

Once you pick a brand you are pretty much stuck with that system's lenses. There are so many choices, but my own choice was Nikon SLR, whose lenses are all interchangeable. Personally I would recommend looking for a Nikon D200 with kit lens (zoom). Virtually every SLR lens Nikon ever made will fit that camera. Then she can always add lenses or even upgrade the body at any time and the lenses will still be useful. Expect to pay $250-500 for a camera with lens in truly excellent condition.

Here is a review by Ken Rockwell.
