As you can tell, both of these cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same MP. You can expect to see the Nikon P600 to resolve greater detail because of its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also allow you to crop images somewhat more aggressively. The younger P600 will have an edge with regard to sensor technology.
