Verdict: Nikon P600 features more zoom, more megapixel and more ISO range for better low-light perforamnce, hence we recommend you to buy Nikon P600 over Canon SX50 HS
The Nikon P600 is not released yet and still you recommend buying it over the Canon SX50 just because it has more megapixels?
As you can see the comparison is based on the specification, not only megapixel you also get more ISO range, more optical zoom and built-in WiFi, we do fair review and we are not owned or sponsored buy any brand or product.
So image quality is of no interest to you?
Interesting comparison thanks. A tough choice for this class of camera buyers at the moment.
Owning both a P500 and a SX50 over time the sx50 became the camera of choice as Canon just more often took better looking pictures, they’ve packed quality in those 12mp and far better image stabilization in the sx50 much better for handheld shooting.
The Nikon form factor, design, is better, feels better in your hand sometimes the Canon just feels downright awkward to hold with the left side buttons rarely used.
The Nikon coolpix series have been the better choice for novice auto clicking holiday snappers and the Canons for those wanting to get into taking better pictures.
With the beefy new specs the Nikon has certainly outclassed the Canon on paper, it will be interesting to see comparison photos.
The question I’m asking myself, do I buy this, or hold out for Canons next offering (the sx60?).
The big zoom race will continue, it’s a lot of fun, these type of cameras are just phenomenal technology.
Yes even we are sure that Canon will bring its next super zoom camera very soon.
Have to disagree with your statement that Nikon will have better image quality. The Canon has the same size sensor but larger (and fewer) pixels. That means it should be more sensitive, i.e. much better low light performance. The real contest will be in the quality of the optics.
Also, the Canon goes down to ISO 80 (vs 100 for Nikon), so should have better bright light performance too. ISO over about 1600 is a joke – only pro grade digital cameras take decent photos above that.
La SX50 HS permite guardar el RAW y pasar de éste a TIFF uncompressed; esto de por sí ya hace que sea superior a la Nikon; lo demás son chucherías para quienes no aprovechan del todo las cámaras.
