Verdict
Pick the Nikon Coolpix P950 if you prioritize higher still-image resolution and a slightly newer model at nearly the same price. The JVC GY-HM170 stays the better choice if your focus is strictly on video work, given its dedicated camcorder design, even without stabilization. Both lack in-body stabilization, so consider external support if steady footage is critical. Budget differences are negligible, so base your decision on resolution needs versus video specialization.
