Would upgrading from an XSi (450D) to a T5 be worth it?

Re: Would upgrading from an XSi (450D) to a T5 be worth it?

I picked up the SL1 and can recommend it as well. My other camera is the Nikon D7000.

The Canon controls feel a lot more natural to me - even with the one dial, it's no problem bc there is an intuitive toggle switch. So coming from an Xsi, I'd say the touch screen is a big factor since it really makes the camera's controls very accessible.

Also the light weight and the form factor means I'll use it more for my casual kids sports shooting.

The 4fps is slower than the D7000's 6fps but the bottomless buffer with jpeg makes it very useable for sports.
