Hi
I would like to buy a camera for my brother who has a mild/moderate learning disability. Preferably something that is very user-friendly and simple to use. Does anyone have any recommendations/tips?
Thanks.

how is his hand function?
does he drop things easily?
olympus tough is easy to use and can withstand being dropped
around 100 pounds for basic one check tesco.com and boots.com for offers
easiest way to download is to take the sd card out and stick it in card reader on computer or use a card reader in a usb slot
ipad/ipadmini/ipod even simpler to take pics and show them off on the ipad/ipod/ipad mini
tuffcam has different shape to hold and might be more suitable - we got given one but i dont like it so much
