If you sometimes feel like the 60D is too heavy and big with a lens mounted, just buy a 40mm pancake. It's not a prime lens but the quality really is decent. I own it and have used it for several productions. It's great for travelling. With the crop factor of the 60D, it gives you a clipping equivalent to 64mm which is still ok. Plus you can go much closer to your subject which makes the lens versatile.
So my recommendation would be the 40mm pancake rather than the cheap 50mm lens. They are similar in weight but the 40mm will please you more.
(If you plan to play around with bokeh a lot than the pancake is not the lens for you.)
