c1000s is generally regarded as really peaky and brittle
used c3000s on choir, and most of the time wasn't really happy with them.
haven't tried either of the other two.
the audio-technica pro37r is now $99 at some places, not a bad small diaphragm.. i have used them on vocals, acoustic guitars, and even kick drum, and it worked well. it's been a few years, i've been meaning to pick a pair up to see if they are still as good as i remember (and they've got to be better than the sm58s we are using at church). make sure you run it at a full +48v.
also i've heard some good things about some of the alesis mics, they are being blown out now, you can get a groove tubes/alesis AM51 for $150 some places.
other 'studio classics' include the shure sm81 (sometimes $150 used, small diaphragm condenser) and maybe the sennheiser md421 (also sometimes $150 used, dynamic)....
