Beyond the camera itself, I don't even look at the Sony brand. I just purchased two nice Tamron lenses that will last me until I either become a very well paid professional or become to old and shaky to hold the camera. (The latter being more likely!) From everything I've read, Tamron makes a product that competes on the level of the Sony brand, but costs much less...seems like a no brainer for me. I love Sony products, but I'm not interested in paying the extra money for a logo.
Lee also has the right idea in finding old Minolta stuff. I have a Minolta 50mm that I got on Ebay for a song and it works great.
