Re: Upgrading from a Rebel T3i to T6s~Upgrade the lens? Wildlife shooting is the goal.

We shoot about the same type of subjects and I also have a T6s, although I upgraded from a Rebel Xti. From 10 to 24 megapixels the difference is huge, likely not so much from 18 to 24. But anyway, I use a 10-18 for wide-angle so your 10-22 should be fine. Now about the long range, I use a 70-200 F4L IS and it is stunning on 24 Mp so the 70-300 L should be the same. What I would suggest however is not to update your lens until you have a chance to try it on the T6s, it might surprise you. If after testing you find out that the lens is limiting the combo in terms of resolution, then upgrade. If there is no chance to test it, go for it and Just remember the the 70-300 L is a noticeably heavier and larger lens. Good luck.

Happy New Year.
