Nikon camera D5300 kit lens making a noise while taking pictures? And it's not the auto focusing noise

I have the 18-55 kit lens… I tired taking 2 or 3 second long exposure pictures and the lens make a noise. I turned if VR to if it was that but no. Then I turn the auto focusing off still the noise is there. I took the lens off then just use the camera to pressing the shutter button. No noise so it is the lens.

Why would it make noise even when at manual focus. When ever I read the shutter button this noise start from the lens?

Could it be lens motors gone bad?

What are some examples of a decent middle-ground camera?

I'm interested in photography, but all I have right now is an iPhone 6. It's alright, but I find myself wanting better quality photos and more depth-of-field capability. However, I can't afford a $2000 Nikon or Canon camera right now.

What is a good middle-ground type of camera that will produce higher-density pixel photos and a decent amount of blur? Something around the $500 range?

Will I have a problem with 50mm D lens mounted on Nikon D3400?

I'm a beginner with photography and started only earlier this year. Like most, I started with the kit lens that came with the camera body.

Recently I've been interested in buying a prime lens. The most affordable one I've been seeing in malls is the 50mm Nikkor prime lens with f/1.8. My problem is that it's a D lens and I've read that D lens won't work with the D3400 because the body has no auto focusing motor or something like that.

Is this the only problem that I will encounter? I read that I could still shoot in manual mode, which is fine because that's the only mode I shoot with. I would just like to clarify if this is the only thing I should be worried about. I'm still unfamiliar with the 50mm lens body as of now but I'll get through that once I play with it. Any input is appreciated.

Best device to store pictures from a computer and easiest way to do it?

I have an imac and its from 2011, just the other day it started just restarting or powering off on its own. I have a bunch of pictures of my kids from the past years and need to save them. Most of them are on Nikon Transfer from when I uploaded them from the memory card.
Added (1). fyi: i'm afraid it will just power off and not turn on so i want to save the memories.

I need a new 300+mm lens but still in high school so still on budget under $300?

at the moment I shoot with my Nikon d7100 but i'm using an very old tamron af 70-300mm f 4-5.6 ld tele-macro and I get a purple haze over whites sometimes and the lens is not very sharp at all. I have been doing some wildlife photography lately mainly a kingshisher, but I'm just not happy with the quality of the images. I would like something over 300mm or just a prime 300mm but the cash starts to raze with those big tele-photo lenes. Any suggestions?

I'm a bit confused about the focal length thingy of DSLR lenses. Can you clarify a bit?

I'm looking to buy Nikkor 40mm 2.8 for jewelry photography but everyone keeps saying that focal length is too less which makes minimum focus distance less too. So if I take jewelry pics and I'm not close to the minimum focus distance but a little further from the minimum focus distance, will it effect the pictures quality? I will be using the focus stacking technique.

Could this be an issue with my scope?

I recently bought a Ruger Ultralight .308, it came with an older 3x-9x Bushnell Banner. I was at 25 yards on a stable bench and I could barely get it on the paper. I got it pretty close so I go back to 50 and its completely off the paper. Go back to 25, can't even touch the paper, It won't stop shooting left no matter where I'm and I crank it way to the right, it will make an amazing shot, next shoot, can't touch the paper. Looked the scope up and its only about 40 USD. I'm getting a new Nikon Prostaff 4x-12x anyway but is this a problem with my scope or rifle?
