Hi there guys!

I am intending to import from the USA to the UK an HPX500,

I believe this is the right import code for the UK - which is 85258011

8525 Transmission apparatus for radio-broadcasting or television, whether or not incorporating reception apparatus or sound recording or reproducing apparatus; television cameras, digital cameras and video camera recorders- 8525 80 Television cameras, digital cameras and video camera recorders- - 8525 80 11 Television cameras - - - 8525 80 11 With 3 or more camera tubes

http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_custom...&Country=----------&Day=01&Month=03&Year=2008



If I understand right - the duty % and p&p is added first before VAT?

Oh and also could someone link me a recommended battery set up for this cam ;P

Not my duty to know diddly about vat codes ;) .... but, as for battery, the Anton Bauer Tandem 70 with a Dionic 90 is a sweet setup.
 
The 500 comes standard w/ AB Gold Plate. But I was referring to the AB on-camera
charger/AC adapter unit, the Tandem 70:

LOVE the way your AC adapter is always with you (it weighs less than 1 lb, I believe), it charges the battery anytime the camera is off, and you can be recording, battery mounted, power coming from AC, then PULL the AC & camera doesn't know it - switches instantly over to battery.
 
There's a company called Big 10 Media that has HPX555's out of Florida, USA, for cheap, might be a closer ship for you to get serviced if anything happened. 5 year Japan warranty.
