Shure beta 57' s or 58's are the workman's dynamic mics- that being said I really like my Blue Ball (phantom powered though) & one day I tried mic'ing my guitar amp with an Audix (F10- I think) dynamic that was from their "drum pack") & had really good results, so Audix mics are generally a pretty good gamble as well.

i don't have experience with any of the other mics, but i bought a used Rode NT1A off of eBay for just under $100. it was DOA. I called Rode's service center and they said send it and they'd fix it, no charge. got it back a week later. they even included a shock mount for free when they returned it. it's been sounding sweet ever since.

Get a Shure KSM27. Its clarity is pretty much unmatched for a condenser mic of that value (~$300) and its worth the extra money for the quality it presents. For only about $150 though, you can get a good AKM which will work just fine though. The different types of mics really depend on what you plan to record. A shure SM57 or SM58 is not what you want to go with to record vocals. A condenser mic of lesser value will serve you better, although I have used a Shure SM58 Beta to record drums and it worked quite well.
