    or if you want a less modern, more retro appeal, how about a

    canon canonet ql17 rangefinder from the 70's? there are a ton of 70's metal-bodied rangefinders on ebay for less than $100. they're definitely different from modern automatic-everything cameras, but they're still excellent photographic tools. solid and very satisfying, in a mechanical way.

    or if you want a modern plasticky toy camera that's a bit different, a blackbird tlr:

    bit over $100, but takes 35mm film so you don't have to deal with medium format.

    finally, you can get her a polaroid camera! like this spectra here:

    you can find these for $20 on ebay or craigslist, and you can get (expensive) polaroid film from the impossible project:
