Usually, it can be difficult to picture the gap in sensor measurements just by going through specifications. The graphic here may give you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the 60Da and D500.

Plainly, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size but different MP. You should expect to see the Nikon D500 to show extra detail as a result of its extra 3 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also let you crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The older 60Da will be disadvantaged in sensor technology.
