I have a Rebel T5 and am definitely not in the position to purchase a high end body; that said, in May we are going to Alaska. Therefore, I am wondering if I purchased the RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens will it work with the Rebel? Obviously, I don't want to waste my money if it will not work.
Thoughts / Input would be greatly appreciated as this novice is not shy to admit I have limited knowledge and am reaching out those that know more than myself.
If it will work - do I need anything special or can I just purchase the lens?
Thank you in advance for your input!

The lenses that Ernie and I are suggesting will align via the Red Dot. The red dot is to align EF lenses (those designed to work for full-frame cameras), while the white dot is to align the connection for EF-S lenses (those designed specifically for crop-sensor bodies like yours). Most likely the Sigma and Tamron lenses will have white dots, but that is because they don't use Canon's colour convention. They will align to the red dot on your camera to attach as they are designed for FF and crop bodies.
