One of Australia's largest REs pays me (not very well) to go shoot their
commercial properties and the 1 million+ estates but sends out the
office secretary with a P&S to get their low to mid range houses done.

I loaned her one of my cameras set in idiot mode with a 12 mm lens on it
when she had to do a relocatable house interior. The results were what
she needed but the office still hasn't bought a DSLR for her!
