The Fujifilm S1 was launched 2 years after the P500 which is quite a serious gap as far as technology is concerned. The two cameras feature the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before getting right into a thorough comparison, here is a brief summary of how the Fujifilm S1 scores versus the P500 with respect to portability, imaging, features and an overall score.

This is a sample of the gallery pics for Fujifilm FinePix S1 and Nikon Coolpix P500. The complete galleries are viewable at Fujifilm S1 Gallery and Nikon P500 Gallery.

For those who are going to carry around your camera often, you'll have to factor its weight and volume.

More often than not, it is hard to envision the gap between sensor sizes only by going over technical specs. The pic here should offer you a much better sense of the sensor sizes in the Fujifilm S1 and P500.

As you can tell, both of the cameras come with the identical sensor size but not the same megapixels. You should expect to see the Fujifilm S1 to deliver extra detail utilizing its extra 4 Megapixels. Greater resolution will also enable you to crop pics a good deal more aggressively. The more recent Fujifilm S1 is going to have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
