He has both already (an SLR) that fully addresses all the performance issues but for whatever reason doesn't want to use it for those situations. Maybe it's a big Nikon SLR, not a small Nikon SLR.
I've got a neighbor who works with 2 D300 cameras and didn't realize how much smaller and lighter the entry-level D40/60/3000/3100 models are---any one of which would still be easy to carry and perform far better than any non-SLR for casually (but satisfactorily) taking snapshots of kids moving fast.
