So, my wife still shoots with an old Nikon D50, we'd love to upgrade, but not in the books at the moment. Still a good camera, and she has a couple decent lenses for it.
One thing she's been wanting is a Fisheye. Those things are bloody expensive! Came across this however:

Everything I've seen on it says it's an amazing deal to get started with Fisheye photography. It's a manual lens, but that isn't a worry. Grabbing it.
Now, she needs a low light lens. What immediately comes to mind is the nifty 50, and here is where my knowledge comes up short. There are two versions of the Nifty 50 for Nikon...old one for ~99, new one for ~200. Is the new one THAT much better, or am I safe getting the older one?
Thanks!
