I've had a Canon Rebel for 10 years and absolutely love it, but my husband suggested getting a new, lighter camera to take on our trip to Portugal. I did alot of research and talked to several friends who own the SX60 camera and love it. But I am having great difficulty taking good pictures, especially zoomed in at 65x or greater. I've looked all over the internet and can't seem to find a Powershot sx60 for Dummies. I just want easy to understand and follow, step by step instructions and find the manual difficult to use and to see!

I love taking pictures of birds, wildlife, flowers, and scenery. Can anyone help me set up my camera to quickly take these kinds of pictures? I think Canon is missing the boat by not offering better instructions. HELP please!

..Welcome to the club!

..I'm "new" to the SX60 camera too..

..as suggested, try using the "P" mode to begin with, as it allows more options in the menus..

..below are some "test" pictures I did from my SX60 camera, you can compare your results with mines..

..these are full size straight out of camera jpeg images..

..SX60, sooc jpeg..
