    Beginner Where can I cheaply develop film?

    Absolutely completely and definately DIY your own black and white then scan the negatives. The kit is cheap to buy on Ebay and, once you can do it it really is easy. I've taught primary school children to do it - and best of all its essentially free!

    New SD memory card - protocol (?)

    I would put it in the camera you are going to use it in and format it and then use it. In my experience it's much better to format in camera than via computer. Once you have finished shooting and are ready to download then stick it into your computer via a card reader - copy and paste - then...
