I think that pretty much covers it. Something to teach the basic photography skills. Manual exposure, for the three exposure related values, Shutter Speed, Aperture, and ISO. Manual Focusing, but it probably needs decent focusing aids, given the sorry state of most modern viewfinders, either electronic or mechanical. RAW, but the format is important. There are probably obscure RAW formats that aren't handled well by mainstream converters.

I can't remember who said it but a camera is basically a light tight box with a lens on the front.

Give them a light tight box and make them learn.

What would you set as minimum requirements for a camera?
I'm thinking:
Interchangeable lenses
Manual Exposure & focus capable
Raw format

Anything else?
