The 90D was introduced 4 years later than the P900 and that is quite a big difference as far as tech is concerned. Each of these cameras feature different body design with the Canon 90D being a Mid-size SLR camera and the Nikon P900 being a SLR-like (bridge) camera.

Before going into a in depth comparison, here is a short overview of how the 90D scores versus the P900 when considering portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

Bear in mind, the weight of an ILC will vary depending on the lens you are utilising at the time. Below is a front view scale comparison of the 90D compared to the P900.

Using size and weight, the portability score of the 90D and P900 is 60 and 52 respectively.

Generally, it can be hard to visualize the contrast between sensor measurements merely by looking at specifications. The visual below might offer you a much better sense of the sensor dimensions in the 90D and P900.

Plainly, each of the cameras come with different megapixel count and different sensor measurements. The 90D with its larger sensor is going to make getting shallow DOF simpler and the Canon 90D will give you extra detail using its extra 17MP. Greater resolution can also make it easier to crop photos a good deal more aggressively. The younger 90D provides an advantage when it comes to sensor innovation.
