Hi,
I am thinking of getting either an F11 or an F10 for those occasions (mostly dinners, concerts and so) where the EOS350D is a bit out of place. I know about the high-ISO capability, and that's one of the two main reasons I want it. But the other reason is, the F10/11 can shoot in 3:2 aspect, which is great because I don't have to crop my images to print them together with those coming out from my dSLR. Now, the question is:

I know that the F10/11 has a Fine quality, that is only available in 4:3, while 3:2 is Standard only. Is the difference noticeable? In my Oly 50Z it ain't, but every camera is a different story, so can anybody with this camera comment on this? Or post a few crops so that I can see for myself? Thank you in advance!

I am planning on writing Fuji to suggest adding a fine setting for 3:2 in a future firmware upgrade. I hope they listen.

Seconded! I don't see what's the problem of using Fine compression with 3/2 ratio, in a jpg it's just a matter of selecting a % compression.
