That's what I'm hoping to achieve. If I had any thought that I'd be leaving it in auto I know a DSLR is the wrong camera to buy. But I've had a point 'n shoot for ages and it's so frustrating when you cannot get the pictures to come out how you want them to.
There doesn't seem to be much saving to be had by buying used unless I'm missing a trick? For example...
This used body:

This random used lens:

Comes to ~£250. Yet if buy brand new
