Please help me to choose

Hello guys, i hope you are doing well, actually i have a question about a hard choice! my wife bought me a 1300D for my birthday, its a pretty cool camera but i m not a big fan of fix screen, i'm ready to spend 300 € more to the 400 € to buy something else, maybe a nikon ?! please give me your opinion about that, what would you buy with this budget ? thank you very much

How do you realize 400 euros from your new camera? Will you sell it?

There are cameras with articulated LCD displays, but is that a feature worth trading cameras to get?

Agree with Designer. I moved from a camera with a fixed screen to one with a touch, articulating screen. I find myself rarely using either feature. Before going through the hassle of selling and buying new, maybe consider how much you'll need or use those features?

I own the eos 80d and I the 6 months I've owned it I've used the articulating screen once for about 3 minutes. I'd keep the cam you have and upgrade as your photography improves or your needs change

I use a tripod a great deal - at various height's from close to the ground to above my eye level. I cannot imaging going back to a fixed screen on a camera.
