Hi,
I am working on a internship in a Internet marketing company in the US now. Part of my job scope is to design online ads. So I am quite competent with Photoshop and various aspects of digital photo processing. 2 months ago I bought a Canon A95 to give my design work more materials to work on. Some of the A95 photos can be seen here.

However, I am beginning to feel the limitations of the P&S camera (A95) having taken 800 shots in 1 month. Recently, Canon is having a rebate sale here in the US, price of a Canon 300D (or Digital Rebel) lens kit is $699 USD. There are also 300D packages that comes with a IS mid zoom EF Canon lens and a wide lens going for $1200 USD.
I have 3 questions. Please take a look at my A95 photos. Am I hitting the limits of the camera and I should get a SLR to learn more? Or I am simply suffering from equipment envy and should just stick with the A95 until I had truly outgrown it.
Finally, is the 300D cheaper in Singapore? (e.g package prices)
Thanks for and advise
