Newb to photography. Need help on a Nikon

Hi all.

I have a question and figured this would be the first place. Ive read some reviews and everyone likes the camera. My Boss has a Nikon D3100 DSLR with video. He is selling it with a 18-55m for 300 or he will throw in a 55-200m for 400 Dollars total for camera and both lenses. Ive never had a camera like this and have no clue on how to use the lenses.

Is this camera over my head and priced too high since i found it on Amazon for 479 with both lenses brand new. Sent him the link and he said wow didnt know amazon had them that cheap. counter offered at 250 and am waiting for a reply.

I have a 11 month old girl and we are tired of getting friends to come take pictures of her or paying someone to do this.

Help a guy out. Thanks

 

for 250 its a good deal. its a nice camera to learn on, the functionality on that camera drives me nuts though, i learned with and currently shoot a Nikon D7100.
but if you have the patience to learn what the buttons and menu options do, then you will be fine with that camera

 

So its to many options and not as simple as some others?
