Entry level SLR?

Had a look at the Sony's, the a37 looks nice, but it works out considerably more expensive than the 550D, and as with the Nikon's the lenses are more expensive, comparison site has no information on low light performance either. IS is nice, but I will be using a tripod for anything that matters. Probably going to go with the 550D overall.

Can't believe the lack of lens stock on the high street. Couldn't find a single 50mm lens in town, no wonder the high street is dying, you can't make money if you don't stock anything!

People buying 50mm lenses tend to be interested in photography as more than just a memory-saving pastime, who tend to know that the high street is way more expensive than buying online. Jessops etc. don't target people who'll discuss what lens to buy on the internet.
 
The thing is though, they all had the lens as part of their product range, they just didn't have it in stock, inlcuding a specialist photography shop which had much more expensive lenses in!
 
I've got the camera now. :D Can anyone recommend an external Mic for the 550D, I just know I'll need one for shooting video.
