It doesn't have in camera sensor cleaning. So unless you want to clean her sensor every week in order to woo her i would let her stay far far away from it.

That won't be very useful for school use, it will not get any respect. I won't be cleaning it for them and I doubt anyone else would.

If the camera is going to have the kit lens on permanently, this may not be an issue.

So you're a teenager at school and someone hands you a dslr with a lens attached. What's the first thing you do? Or maybe not the first, but not long afterwards.

Glue the lens to the body

Is that responsible advice from a moderator?!

Totally irresponsible advice from a moderator. The type of glue required would never be allowed for Health and Safety reasons - lenses must be welded to the body for school use.

That would be a great way to convert the dslr to a P&S bridge

I used to manage some PC's for public use. You wouldn't believe how those poor things were abused by its users well beyond 15 years old. At some point we either wanted to wire the PC case up to 10.000V or remove the computers and let the users bring their own device. How we would've loved to see people, especially the culprits get shocked we chose the latter
