Hello.. I have a PowerShot SX60 HS and I need lens recommendations. I’m not looking for something professional, just an upgrade for the original lens.

 

Can someone please help me?

Actually, Tom, you are the one who did not read all of the posts. <<< Where does that say he has pictures on his profile of anything other than the moon? It just says the camera is capable of it. The later post says he has pictures of the moon on his profile.


 

John, 

The moon was amazing two nights ago. Did you take any pictures?

Hi Rossy, no I didn't and the weather here has been cloudy and rainy. Did you put any pictures on here?

Good morning, John 

No, I did not. I do have some old pictures online, but they are on a different site. 

I could share the link if you would like to see them.

 

Where do you live? I wish it was raining here, we need some of that.

I have the two models sx40 and sx60 beautiful cameras, I do sometimes clip on  a macro lens when I want to take images up close, I also took fantastic pictures with both cameras of the moon and wild life.
I use them more often than my DSLrs 5D classic, 5d M2, M3 and my two mirrorless cameras, I somehow prefer them, they are just easy to use and they render great image quality even in low-light conditions. The only downside to the sx60 could do with a slightly wider aperture like a f1.8 at least. 
But then again the BSI sensor is a smaller sensor than most cameras (1/2.3-inch) 6.17mm x 4.55mm, it's much smaller than an average APS-c sensor.

But it's still a great camera. I just love them.
I think they are underrated and it's a shame.

I am probably late to this thread, I don't know if this could help you.
You can slap a macro lens on, or a fisheye lens (but for the fisheye lens, remember it has this feature already)

You can get one of those lenses with an adapter and they are relatively very cheap.

I hope this helps.
