I feel your pain fella lol what is she using at the moment. You can usually find the camera body's for good prices but lenses can be very pricey. Do u have an idea on which one or brand. I can definitely vouch for Nikon, I've worked with it for few years now and they are fantastic. I have friends who will swear down that cannon but I say meh. Haha In all honesty it doesn't really matter about the make. Good luck and happy hunting

Thanks for the recommendation! She only has a coolpix now... Have to gradually upgrade her. Don't want to start with $5k worth of gear.. Because then where, from there? When she wants more gear... Her new budget would be above the $5k mark.. Haha. (And by her budget, I mean mine).

Thanks again!
