Also keep in mind that D-SLR's do not have any video features, except for the new Nikon D90, but it's 'video' mode is debatable.
It might just be a good idea to see how much Manual control the T5 has to offer. It might not be much, but it could be enough to do some learning.
There are regular Point and Shoot cameras that do offer manual controls, like the Canon A, S and G series of cameras. These would definitely give u a taste of what it would be like to control a D-SLR.
Most entry level D-SLR's have an Auto setting, which usually gets you some really nice pics, so as a walk around tourist thing, a camera like the Sony A200 or Nikon D40/D60 would be ideal.
