Pick the Canon EOS 1300D if you prioritize newer technology, slightly lower weight, and a more traditional DSLR design, or if 1080p/30 video is sufficient. The Sony SLT-A58 stays the better choice if you need faster burst shooting, in-body stabilization, or smoother 1080p/60 video—and the 121 EUR price difference matters.
