Re: a rented T6s is arriving here tomorrow...

for one thing, i want two dials/wheels when i shoot raw, but the SL1 only has one, as does the T6i. i want faster autofocus, and my son - who's used my SL1 and his new T6i says the T6i focuses faster and more reliably. it's not an 80D, but due to wrist problems, that's not an option for me.

i'd like an articulated screen, not only for video but sometimes for photos, and honestly a top screen would be very useful sometimes if it's easy enough to read. if the T6s had better low light performance, that wouldn't hurt, but i didn't expect much improvement in that area.

and as small as my hands are (i'm 5'3") i find that the grip on the SL1 isn't a good fit for me, and as a result i have trouble hand-holding shots at 1/50th or lower that i easily got when i had a sony a6000.
