Verdict
Pick the Canon EOS 7D if you need faster continuous shooting (8 fps vs. 3 fps) and can tolerate its heavier build for the lower price. The Canon EOS 1300D stays the better choice if you prioritize lighter weight (485 g vs. 860 g) and prefer a more recent model, despite the higher cost. Both share identical resolution and video capabilities, so the decision hinges on burst speed, weight, and budget.
