Three dials for shutter, aperture and ISO make it easy to adjust quickly for changing light conditions. Paired with the 70-300m lens I love the images produced. Even though it\u2019s a slow lens, the low light capability of the camera makes it possible to get good images in darker situations. I would absolutely recommend the R6 to anyone. The 70-300mm is an old lens but if you can get a good one it is very useful and affordable.<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_173707&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/rteaguephotography-nottinghillcarnivalsunday-2022-33.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"173707\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/rteaguephotography-nottinghillcarnivalsunday-2022-33.jpg\" alt=\"women dancing at notting hill carnival\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Image: Ruth Teague<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n<h3>Rele James<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/rele_james\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@rele_james<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kit used: <a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/latest\/photo-news\/second-hand-classic-fujifilm-x-t2-130878\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fujifilm X-T2<\/a>, 56mm f1.2 R<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_173738&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 546px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rele.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"173738\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Rele.jpg\" alt=\"Rele James with fujifilm xt2\" width=\"526\" height=\"701\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Rele James.

I was in several minds about what lens to take to the carnival &#8211; prime or zoom &#8211; but knew I wonted to travel light and also have the option to get some wide or very close shots. The 24-105mm was the perfect choice for me as it ticked all the boxes for what I had in mind.<\/p>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_173801&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 620px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/patakiphotos_ukbftog_nhc22_9249.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"173801\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/patakiphotos_ukbftog_nhc22_9249.jpg\" alt=\"girl in orange tshirt dancing at nottinghill carnival\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">Image: Funmi Akingbe<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<hr \/>\n\t\t<div id=&quot;attachment_173749&quot;  class=\"c-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1020px\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Untitled-design.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"173749\" src=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Untitled-design.jpg\" alt=\"ukbftog headshots in tile grid\" width=\"1000\" height=\"370\" \/><\/a>\t\t\t<p class=\"c-caption__text\">UKBFTOG at Notting Hill Carnival<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/ukbftog.com\/\">UKBFTOG<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/ukbftog\/\">@ukbftog<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/second-hand\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">See more advice for buying second-hand here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Further reading:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/interviews\/ukbftog-the-success-of-a-group-dedicated-to-black-female-photographers-158281\">UKBFTOG: the success of a group dedicated to black female photographers<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/other.kelsey.host\/amateurphotographer\/technique\/interviews\/carnival-slayers-return-to-notting-hill-173155\">Carnival Slayers return to Notting Hill<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>UKBFTOG hit the streets of Notting Hill Carnival with kit lent from MPB.
