What camera should I buy my girlfriend?

Another vote for the Canon A-1 or AE-1 from me - great bodies with the ability to shoot manual or auto, and a raft of very inexpensive good lenses, cheap because of Canon's switch from the FD mount to the EF mount, and the fact there isn't a digital camera that can mount the FD glass. Particular favourite FD lenses of mine include the 35/2.8, 50/1.4 and 85/1.8.
 
Only a Leica M3 will match the lady. Any M standard lens will go well with it.The Queen (of England) uses one.

And here's to add some confirmation . . . plus an extra vote for the Canon AE1, I've just 'dug' mine out from the depths of my camera cupboard and scans will be here shortly but please don't hold your breath nor expect the ultimate.
