Hi,

thank you all for the great advice. Some more options I can find in the used market:

1) Sony A6000 18-55 kit...480€

2) Panasonic GF6 (body only)....150€

3) Panasonic GF7 12-32....300€

4) Olympus EM5 14-150 (mk1)....600€

For an unknown reason I can find many used and in good shape A6000 kits locally. I know its a good camera, but if ILC I would prefer to get him a m43 camera so as to be able to exchange lenses. Furthermore I don't know how much would a tele lens cost..

Also easy interface and good images out of the box should be also a factor.

Yannis, I would strongly recommend a camera with a built in EVF especially for an older former DSLR shooter. Shooting with a rear screen only especially in sunny countries can be a pain in the backside especially so with longer focal lengths. The external bolt on EVF’s are often surprisingly expensive.
