The B600 was announced 3 years later than the P900 and that is a fairly significant difference as far as camera tech is concerned. Both of these cameras feature the same body design (SLR-like (bridge)).

Before diving right into a full comparison, here is a brief synopsis of how the B600 grades versus the P900 in regards to portability, imaging, features and an overall grade.

The following is a preview of the gallery photos for Nikon Coolpix B600 & Nikon Coolpix P900. The whole galleries are available at Nikon B600 Gallery & Nikon P900 Gallery.

If you're looking to lug around your camera, you'll have to factor its weight and measurements.

Often, it's hard to visualize the gap in sensor measurements simply by going through technical specs. The visual underneath might offer you a greater sense of the sensor sizes in the B600 and P900.

As you can tell, both of those cameras feature the identical sensor size and the same exact MP and you can expect comparable quality of images but you really should factor the age of the cameras into account. The more modern B600 should have a benefit when it comes to sensor innovation.
