T3i vs T5i vs T6i Opinions needed...

I want a smaller body to supplement and use at times instead of my heavier 1ds ii/iii bodies and I tried different P&S but they are not for me. I want a body that is smaller and offers good IQ at most common used ISO settings i.e. 100-1600 or maybe 3200.

According to DP Review, the T3i has excellent DR and IQ even at high ISO settings while DPR is not that high on the T6i. I am not considering anything other than "Rebel" bodies as I have two pro bodies I love. This will be a handy camera to grab and go where portability is an issue.

For those that have compared these two, what are your thoughts? I have good quality "L" glass to start me off and then I'll also get the 10-22mm(?) lens for more wider angles.

Also, AF comparison would be useful since I might do some BIFs with the Tamron 150-600mm lens.

Thanks!
