Get out of Auto for starters. It limits what you can adjust in the camera. "P" is a similar and better alternative.
Also, shoot with PEF or DNG (not JPG) files, and get that software you don't want to use. I have been using Photoshop Elements for years. The simple stuff is...simple. It has a few modes from beginner to expert. Much online help.
Currently, if you don't do anything after pressing the shutter, you will have live with it Upgrading to a used K5 or newer body would be useful as well.
