Thanks Don. That's what I thought, $429 was way too much for a 6-7 year camera. How did you like the SX60?

I only had the SX60 for a few weeks on a cruise.  I liked it ergonomically but the extra long end of the zoom proved a bit too long.  Atmospheric conditions and hand holding does little to recommend anything over 50x.  All else considered it was a good step up from the SX40.  It was a tough decision to go with a refurbished SX50 from Canon's e-store at a super low price or keep the SX60.  I sold the SX60.  Still hoping that Canon doesn't screw up the 70.
