A:Answer Differences are higher resolution shots, the t5 is hardly even a beginner dslr, weight and size the 80d is heavier and bigger and can support heavier high quality lenses with stabilizers ( I use this one a lot on the 80d body Canon - EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Telephoto Zoom Lens https://www.bestbuy.com/site/canon-ef-70-200mm-f-2-8l-is-ii-usm-telephoto-zoom-lens-white/9839236.p?skuId=9839236&ref=06&loc=01&ksid=64f1f6d2-c3d4-420f-a171-cd930f3b7e55&ksprof_id=3&ksaffcode=pg265711&ksdevice=c ) just be careful to carry by the lens and not your camera body, the ISO expansion, 7fps vs 3? on t5, body is weather sealed with nice grip, touchscreen, faster shutter, battery is probably twice that of the t5, smartphone remote, flash coverage. The only thing the t5 might outrank the 80d on is bigger sensor pixel area but doubt its by much. And most Canon lenses are interchangeable
