Which would be a better buy?
Canon PowerShot SD1300 IS Digital ELPH Camera or the Canon PowerShot SD1400 IS Digital ELPH ?
I am definitely mainly interested in the quality of the photos, and the fisheye quality. Thanks!

The SD1400 is a much better camera than the simple SD1300.
Their price difference isn't that big, now that the SD1400 is on discount.
You should definitely prefer the SD1400 over the SD1300.
This camera can take an excellent picture providing you are technically a very competent photographer, or very lucky. Otherwise, it probably isn't it the camera for you (or for most normal point-and-shoot photographers). The camera lacks one feature I consider very important to a point and shoot photographer. It has no optical viewfinder. This means that you must take all of your pictures holding the camera out from your head and arms length in order to see the pictures you are getting. Holding any camera in this manner is the least stable way you can possibly hold a camera. Unless you use a tripod or the built-in electronic flash for almost every picture, most of your images will be blurred due to camera movement. Two better choices in this type of camera would be the Power Shot SD 1000 (a little less money) or the Power Shot SD 1100 IS (a little more money but with image stabilization which is a nice feature to have in a point and shoot camera). Do yourself a favor and buy something other than the SD 750 and you will be far happier with the results you get from your point-and-shoot pictures. Hope this helps you make your decision.
