FX charges for buying international shares in an ISA

Hi,
I'm looking to buy some international stocks when I open this year's ISA and see most providers charge c1.5% on foreign exchange conversions when I buy and when I sell.
Can anyone suggest any providers that offer lower FX conversion charges? At present I was thinking of opening with TD Direct as other than the 1.5% FX charge and dealing costs, they have no other charges (no annual fee as I will be holding more than £5,100) and also offer Australian shares (I would have opened an IG Index ISA as they only charge 0.3% for FX but they do not currently offer Aussie shares).
Thanks
