I tend to use my GX80 as point and shoot.

Just stick it in Aperture Priority, with ISO limit of 3200. When she gets used to using it explain to her how to control aperture a bit more and exposure compensation.

Aperture priority mode is what I use myself mostly, I was thinking of P or iAuto. I don't think she never will bother herself with any settings. She's has the eye, very good at composing pictures, but totally uninterested of all technical aspects.

As a raw shooter I have never bothered about the jpg settings. I have set it to the best jpg quality, but what about the other settings to get most natural colours?
