Heres my opinion about the Canon 1300D
being my first ever camera(DSLR) is very user freindly.like my freind had the earlier 1200D which was a great camera.but was heavier than this one.also the pricing of both the cameras was same.the 1300d also known as the rebel t6 is a new lighter compact and more comfy version of the canon entry level dslrs. The picture quality with the rebel t6 is more vivid.dynamic and sharp.the colours dwell out of the screen.shutter speed comes with new adjusts and also the best is their new food mode.which allows the photographer to take more warm and intense photographs of their subject(as in food).well battery life lasts about 400-450 shots one time.which is a great expirince for a beginner.being a begginer or an entry level camera.this camera can also reach to some mid-level.DSLRs functions.overall if you are willing to buy a camera and if you want something handy.trustworthy.go for the Canon 1300D.
