Often, its tough to visualise the gap in sensor sizes purely by viewing a spec sheet. The pic here will help offer you a far better sense of the sensor sizes in the P520 and P600.

Clearly, both of the cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements albeit not the same resolution. You can expect the Nikon P520 to render extra detail as a result of its extra 2 Megapixels. Higher resolution can also allow you to crop pictures somewhat more aggressively. The more aged P520 will be behind with regard to sensor tech.
