S6 Encryption

I want to buy an S6, encrypt it before any personal use, use it for a couple of months, then sell it.
This in order to avoid data recovery after factory reset, which I read is possible.
I have two simple questions:
1- Will you still be able to use the fingerprint reader after turning on full device encryption? (I've already found that it is possible, I just need a confirmation)
2- Before selling the phone I'll move my pictures and videos to an external drive, after that I want to disable encryption and make sure the S6 is clean. How? A factory reset, or decryption then a factory reset? Will this make any difference in term of data recovery if the device was not scripted?
