T5i is a great camera
I did a lot of research comparing DSLR for features, pros vs. cons, etc. and ultimately for the price. Although a full-frame sensor is preferred for professional photography, I would not label myself as such and decided a crop-sensor like on the T5i would suit me and my purposes of snapping photos...
Very easy to use; Great reviews online like YouTube and readable articles
