There are some good offers here in Europe for some older models right now... EM5 can still be found in good bundles, also G7 and GX7 - and many other versions. Remember, the 16Mb sensor delivers about the same IQ from every body, it's the rest of the paggage (and settings) that makes the differences.

I would take any of the best offers with two lens bundle - 14-42 and 40-150, about, + for the low light add one F1.7 - 2.8 prime from 15 - 30mm range, depending what and how your father wants to photograph most. The kit lenses are actually quite good, and I have not heard a bad word from any of the 40-150-175 lenses. Slowish F-number, yes, but You'll have enough light in daytimes in Greece... And the kit lenses are very compact size and not too heavy.

Cheers!
