The main issue I have is noise at higher ISOs - has this been addressed with the FZ50?
No.
Noise is acceptable (but visible) at ISO 400. 800 is usable if you have no other choice but noise will be objectionable, still better than no picture at all. 1600 is probably not acceptable, and 3200... well, it gives bragging rights, "My camera can shoot at ISO 3200, what can yours do?" but the pictures are completely unusable.
Nonetheless, the low light capability is much better than the camera it replaces, my faithful old Fuji Finepix 6900, which has given me six or seven years of completely trouble free service. My only complaints with the Fuji were poor low-light capability, and it was a battery hog.
