Old 5d or new Rebel? Help Please!

Hi!

 

Lately I have been doing some research and questioning if I should sell my old 5d in exchange for a new Rebel (maybe the t5i?).  I take a lot of animal shelter photos, as well as travel/landscape/touristy photos.  I played with the t5i the other night and it just seems so much faster and the images seemed to be very crisp and clear (on the LCD).  I just don't know if that is a crazy idea.  I haven't been in the freelance game in quite a few years so I'm a bit out of the loop when it comes to what the better camera is at this time.  I cannot afford another 5d to upgrade to the mark iv, iii or ii.

 

I was hoping you all could give me some opinions.

 

Thank you!

"A t5i or the 7d."

 

Is this a question?   If it is, wow, they are very different cameras.

My wife has a T2i, and it has been a very good camera. (She particularly likes its light weight.) But the Rebel series doesn't have autofocus microadjustment, and I've come to regard that as a deal breaker.

 

The 7D (of which I have two) is a fine camera. The 7D2 will be even better.
