Thanks all. I decided to purchase the AF-S DX 50mm lens. I'm not afraid to spend the money. It's just that if I can save somewhere, I will. My interest is to use my kit lenses outside, and I want to be able to switch to the 50 while inside and in lower light situations. As for the nomenclature if the lenses, I'm simply parroting what I have seen on some web sites. I have a few sources from which to purchase the lens.

Hello All. I am not exactly a new photographer. I have used film (Nikon F, Pentax 1000, Minolta 7), and I have graduated to DSLR (Sony A230 and now a Nikon D3400). I know the camera I use now (Nikon D3400) is an entry level camera, but being as I am a teacher, I am on a budget. That brings me to my question. I have the kit lenses for my camera, but I am very disappointing with their indoor performance (predictably). I am now in the market for a 50mm lens. I can get a new AF-S DX lens for about $250 or a AF-S lens (not a DX) for about $100. I know my camera can use the latter model, so my question is whether there is a great enough difference in quality. The AF-S is being sold by Adorama, so I believe they do a good job of inspecting the lens for defects. Do I save the $150 or spend it?

This is one of many shots from Rome. The churches are simply beautiful. -
On our trip to Italy, my wife and I spent 16 days in an Airbnb with this view. -
My wife and I spent a month in Italy. We were three days on the east coast of Sicily. We ate lunch at a restaurant overlooking the beaches. As you can tell, we had great weather and even better views!
