As you can tell, the 2 cameras posses the exact same sensor measurements but not the same megapixels. You should anticipate the Nikon P950 to provide you with more detail having its extra 2 Megapixels. Greater resolution can also help you crop photos somewhat more aggressively. The fresher P950 will have a benefit in sensor innovation.
