Size and weight are big decision factors when you are trying to find the ideal camera for your needs.
In this section, we are going to illustrate the Nikon P1000 and Canon SX60 HS side-by-side from the front, back and top in their relative dimensions. Nikon P1000 has external dimensions of 146 x 119 x 181 mm (5.75 x 4.69 x 7.13″) and weighs 1415 g (3.12 lb / 49.91 oz) (including batteries). Canon SX60 HS has external dimensions of 128 x 93 x 114 mm (5.04 x 3.66 x 4.49″) and weighs 650 g (1.43 lb / 22.93 oz) (including batteries).
Below you can see the front-view size comparison of the Nikon P1000 and the Canon SX60 HS. Canon SX60 HS is clearly the smaller of the two cameras. Its body is 18mm narrower, 26mm shorter and 67mm thinner than Nikon P1000.
Here is the back view size comparison of the Nikon P1000 and Canon SX60 HS.
Now lets look at the top view comparison of Nikon P1000 and Canon SX60 HS.
Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Canon SX60 HS is significantly lighter (765g ) than the Nikon P1000 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix P1000 nor Canon PowerShot SX60 HS provides any type of weather sealing in their bodies, so you have to give extra care especially when you are shooting outdoors.
