Any advice on lenses?

I've recently bought a Fuji S5100. I got it because I wanted something more advanced than a compact but I can't afford an S3 (yet...give me a few months). I know there are a couple of Fuji made add-on lenses made for this camera (a wide angle and telephoto), and several thrid party lenses. Has anyone ever used any of these? I'd like to get the Fuji lenses, but their twice the price of the third party brands. Anyone familiar with these?

Have you tried a Google search with the names of the lenses you're considering? I suspect you'll find that many have gone where you are thinking about going, and have shared their experiences online.
