80D would be too heavy. Long hiking trips. T1i is almost too heavy already.

If i put shadows to 100 in Lightroom, how many stips is that?

Hmm, hard to say for sure, but a quick check on a landscape shot shows +0.4 steps on the Exposure slider in ACR gives about the same boost to the shadows as +100 on the Shadows slider, so that's not a lot really.

Lenses:

Ef-s 10-18

Ef 50f1.8

Sigma 100mm f2.8 macro

Old ef-s 55-250and 18-55

Not quite enough to lock me down to one platform.

True, and full frame is going to be too heavy and expensive with equivalent lenses.

I can't advise about options outside of Canon, but if you were to stay with the brand I'd look for a kit with the latest 18-55 and 55-250. Those and the 10-18 gives you a great focal length range and performance for a low price. If you're not in a hurry it might be worth waiting to see if the SL2 rumours come true.
