Nikon 18-200 mm or 70-300 lens for sports?

I am looking at upgrading my camera (I currently have a Nikon D50 and want to get a D7000). I currently have a Quantaray (I know it's cheap, but what we could afford) 70-300 lens, a Nikon 18-70mm and a Nikon 50mm fixed lens. I take a lot of pictures of my girls soccer games and just a variety of family pics or food pics for my blog. I'm looking at two different kits (this seems the best way to go for me). One has the Nikon 18-200 lens, and the other has a 70-300 and 18-105. I hate to lose 100mm if it makes a huge difference when shooting sports. I'm just not sure what is the best route for me to go.

Why won't my Nikon D3000 appear under devices on iPhoto?

When I plug my camera in iPhoto generally opens automatically and asks to import my pictures, however this time it isn't. I have restarted my computer, plugged my camera in fully, turned camera on and off, and fully charged my camera's battery. I've successfully imported pictures tons of times before and am very confused about why this is happening. I just got back from a trip and really want to upload my pictures. Please help! :)

Nikon D3100? Nikon D90? PENTAX K-x?

Which would be the best to get for my first DSLR camera? I have a FUJIFILMF72exr now but I would like something a tad more advanced with plenty of options, great features, and a wide range of exchangeable lenses. I would like a good amount of fps and pixels. I would like to be able to take good landscape photos and macro shots. If I should be looking at different brands I'm open to anything! Thank you!

What is the difference between a 55-200 mm VR and a 55-300 mm VR DSLR lens?

I'm looking at cameras for my boyfriend and can't decide which to go with - mainly because I don't know much about them. Right now I'm choosing between the Nikon 3100 18-55 mm VR + 55-300 mm VR, and the Nikon D5000 18-55 mm VR + 55-200 mm VR. He isn't by any means a professional photographer, but we're looking for something that will give us a crisp picture and that has a good zoom.

I know that usually the bulk of the cost is concerning which lens you buy. In this case, the cost is only a difference of $150. How much better is the 55-300 than the 55-200? I'm sure its worth the $150, but I'm just wondering what exactly the difference is between these two. I plan to visit a camera shop later this week, but in the mean time I'm just looking for some opinions concerning this. Thanks!

Is it worth the money to get a Nikon D5300 over a Nikon D3300?

I am a 14 year old boy who is just getting into photography. My dad is a Nikon shooter and he has some very nice lenses that I can use. I'm wondering if it's worth the extra couple hundred dollars to get the D5300? I like the look of the D3300 better and the layout as well. Please help! Thanks!
