There's a selection of AF-D 50mm 1.8 at LCE. Starting from £80. Could be a joint present?

And Gray currently has one for £69...

But someone will point out a D3200 doesn't have a focus motor???
I have a D3100 and tried a non AF-S lens and it was a real headache...

What about the 35mm 1.8 (if that's in budget)? Or an "interval-ometer" for star trails type photos?

Something like this:

Get her a film SLR with some rolls of film. Or even an instant camera.

A one-day training course? Did one with Nikon years ago on my D90 and it was great.
