We have a Canon EOS Rebel T3i, about 6 years old. It has served us well, but we've stumbled upon a deal for a new Canon EOS Rebel T5i. We don't want to buy a new camera for the sake of buying a new camera, but I think we can use a new camera as a one camera quiver with the better video possibilities in the T5, and not have to carry the video camera with us.
The list of feature differences make me think this is a good time to upgrade and still get some $$ out of our old camera.
I'm looking for input from some of our camera guru's.
