Oh the wonders of finding a cheap 50D
which had sensor problems if I remember correctly.

Not exactly. I'm not sure what is up with it. I've fixed it. I think it was the white balance. Cause once I set a custom white balance I didn't have any issues.
EDIT: Just out of curiosity, I checked my shutter count with EOSInfo and it says I've got around 8.5K clicks. I think I need to shoot more

Hahaha my Fuji reports I've taken around 8,800 photos with it in about 8 months, of course not all of them were keepers...
I'm not sure if I am going to get a D-SLR, too much money and the Fuji is fine - to be honest I don't think there's an awful lot of difference once the photos have been edited.

When you find your Fuji limiting that's when you upgrade. You said ISO 800 is noisy and you want to take more photos in low light, then there's a reason a upgrade.
I upgraded from a Canon 1000D to a Canon 60D because I needed better AF in low light. Plus, I needed video because I was taking up video classes.

Yes ISO 800 can be pretty noisy, the camera will go up to 6400 though, goodness knows what's that like if 800 is bad.
The video on the Fuji isn't great either but that doesn't bother me really.
Still not sure if I should get a D-SLR or not. I'll wait and see what happens.

Spoke to some US airmen at RAF Lakenheath today (photos to follow shortly), they pretty much convinced me to get a D-SLR.
They use Nikons themselves (D3 and D4 I think), but they said Canon were also a good brand to go for. Going to go for an 1100D I think as I'd like the video functions too. 
woot!:good:
Hahah yeah it's £330 on Amazon and that includes a lens too (18-55 f/3.5-5.6 DC III) so it's pretty well priced and I reckon I may get one by early next year, by which time I will have been using the Fuji for a year.
Very cool Jason :good:
I'd like to get up and close with an F-22 Raptor

Thanks!
Sat in the cockpit of one of those F-15Es today and I have photos to prove it! I've seen a Raptor fly at RIAT 2010, amazing airshows - amazing planes!!
Here's my shot of a Raptor taxiing down the runway at RAF Fairford (taken using Dad's Panosanic DMC-FZ35 I think?) 
And yes, I'm getting a D-SLR soonish...

yeah my dad works for Pratt & Whitney and he did work on the F-119 jet that powers the F-22. Love hearing the scream of the jet as they fly by.
Gotta love the shape of the engines of the Raptor, so cool. Only ever saw a Raptor that one time though. 
Hopefully the F-35s will be coming to Lakenheath soon (the base I went to today, it's only 30 minutes down the road) and if so I'll see a lot of those. American ones though if they're going to Lakenheath.

The D3 and D4 are the flagship models from Nikon. Don't be surprised that your soon to be 1100D can't take clean pictures at ISO 12,800.

Hahah yeah wasn't expecting to get either of those. I love it how I asked "what D-SLR would you recommend?" and they both said the D3!
