It depends very much on the interest you have in Photography.

If the interest is in just capturing pictures, memories and events, then perhaps a compact fully automatic model will be ideal. They are easy to use, have automatic exposure, auto focus and are literally point and shoot models. They can be taking good photographs within a few minutes of opening the box.

If the idea is to learn about the craft and art of photography, then a basic single lens reflex (SLR) might be a better choice. An SLR allows alternative lenses to be used, can normally be used in manual modes and provide more flexibility than most compact cameras. Although they will take a little more study before they will be useful, they can be used as a tool for learning and for creating images in a way that compact cameras can't.

Whichever camera is chosen, a bit of reading about photography will always help towards better photgraphs.
