Hey,
I finally figured out the majority of my camera's abilities. It's only got 2.0mp and a 3x zoom on it. Right now I'm trying to get down the basics of a digital camera before I move onto a Digital SLR (Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT). I've been reading up on the interchangeable lenses that you can add onto the Powershot A60 (fish-eye, wide angle, 3x telephoto etc).
Do you guys have any advice into which brands make the best lenses? Or anything to watch out for. Thanks!

If you really want to get add on's Go with the Canon Brand:
Canon 2.4x Teleconverter - $89.99 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=248561&is=REG&addedTroughType=search)
Canon 0.7x Wide Angle - $75.00 (http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=cart&A=details&Q=&sku=224518&is=REG&addedTroughValue=278242_REG&addedTroughType=accessory_detail)

I honestly would advise against purchasing those items. If you really want to get into a DSLR just save that $200 and put it towards the purchase of what you really want. There is no reason to wait so you can learn more about DSLR photography. You can read all the books in the world on SLR's/Photography, but the best way to learn is to have your camera in hand and take pictures.
Good Luck,
Ken
