    JD's 365.

    Raw vs Jpg

    Prefer JPEG cause RAW is taking up too much space in my hard drive..

    Best place for compact flash cards.

    You can try 7dayshop . And having 2 8gb cards is better than 1 16gb card. Cheaper as well.

    Import Duty

    You can try one stop digital . Their price are pretty good and they avoid tax by reducing the value of the lenses.

    Paypal or not Paypal...

    Would definitely go for paypal because it's convenient and almost all online buyers have it.

    Import Duty

    import tax and vat will increase the amount you need to pay to about 20% and you may need to pay another £11 brokerage fees.

    Panasonic Lx3 , 25mm wide with a f.2.0 lens =) , can use manual mode, has a hotshoe and slightly cheaper than the G10.

    Looks cool but I think you can DIY that easily.

    Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 or Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8...?

    Tamron. 1mm wider , better IQ and resell value . And since you're using nikon, you won't have the motor noise problem.

    Camera for taking action shots?

    I would say a used 350d for about £150 and if possible the 85mm 1.8 cause it's one of the best action lens out there and a used one goes about £240. about £100 more than your budget but you'll get one of the best action lens available.

    Using a prime

    I rarely use my 50 1.4 as well but when I do, a bigger percentage of them are keepers compared to my zoom.
