Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Nikon B600 is significantly lighter (150g ) than the Canon SX60 HS which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Canon PowerShot SX60 HS nor Nikon Coolpix B600 provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.

LCD Screen Size and Features
Canon SX60 HS and Nikon B600's LCD screens have the same diagonal size of 3.00 inches.
On the other hand, Canon SX60 HS sports a
Fully Articulated screen which you can change the angle and position of the screen almost freely, making it possible to shoot from waist or over-the-head levels, and especially very useful for shooting selfies and video. Nikon B600's LCD screen is a fixed type which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to SX60 HS.
