Weight is another important factor, especially when deciding on a camera that you want to carry with you all day.
Fujifilm T500 is significantly lighter (1279g ) than the Nikon P1000 which may become a big advantage especially on long walking trips.
Weather Sealing
Unfortunately neither the Nikon Coolpix P1000 nor Fujifilm FinePix T500 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
Nikon P1000's 3.20" LCD screen is slightly larger than Fujifilm T500's 2.7 screen.
Moreover, Nikon P1000 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. On the other hand, Fujifilm T500 has a fixed type screen which provides almost no flexibility in shooting positions compared to P1000.
