Thanks for the suggestions so far. The SX730 HS has £120 off (including £30 cashback) on a certain website, though I'm looking to buy in a month or two. Vari-angle screens are a must on my main camera, and the Panasonic looks the better of the suggestions in that sense, though for a second camera it won't matter so much.

I'm not tempted by the SX70 - my SX60 is heavier (without the battery) than the official Canon specs. I'm amazed how much difference 100g makes - I just compared my G1 X to G1 X Mark III, and the former seems so heavy and clunky now I'm used to the III.

Thanks for the sample shots too. I love those planet and moon shots - something I'll now try with my SX60...
