My prime kit is:
Sony 28/2 w/21mm converter - the converter makes me a little angry. It should not perform this well at this price. I don't need a 24-xx zoom, because of this. But I WANT one, because 24mm is what I believe I need. The 28/2 is excellent. Considering the price, it is amazing.
Sony CZ 55/1.8 - Sometimes I swap the Summicron-R 50.
Minolta 100/2 - Amazing lens. Tiny, but dense. About the same size as the 55/1.8.
Zoom:
Minolta 28-135 - this lens, if you have a good copy, is amazing. I had a bad copy and was totally unimpressed. This copy? Wow.
Minolta 80-200/2.8 HS G - I won't get another 7/80-200/2.8. Amazing.
Minolta 100-300 APO D - Small, small, small. Amazing performance. I thought I would settle for a Tamron 70-300 USD, but this lens is better. First copy wasn't this good. There are two models, only distinguished by the presence or absence of the D. The D version has 8 pins on the mount, which provides 5 axis IBIS. Very handy in a long lens. And this lens is made out of composites and has a 55mm filter. A lens that gives me the "wow" feeling. So much performance in a small package. I doubt there is a better xx-300 lens that is smaller and/or lighter.
My fun lens is a Minolta 35-70/3.5. Sometimes a Minolta Rokkor 50/1.4 PG if I want the speed or look. Special lens.
