You don't have to use dynamic hair. It costs quite a lot of time to do the sim, but it does save having to animate the hair to get a realistic look. But I would agree with Mike, don't bother with dynamic hair at the start.

As for the dynamic clothing business, it's no problem to start rendering your animation at, say, frame 31 and go on from there. You can determine start and end frame in the render settings. But again, I wouldn't bother with it to begin with.

I think it's best to start with just getting a feel for creating movement, lighting and camera angles.

I've been using Poser for a few months now and finished my first video last week, the link is above, the animation kicks in after 15 seconds.
