She&#8217;s very keen and loves the job, but inexperienced as yet, so it&#8217;s been difficult for her to get her camera to cooperate. Understandably, as it is a Rebel T5i and just so old and slow for night and sports photography. I finally convinced her to take my R6 with the RF 70-200 f\/2.8 last night. She was reluctant to take on the responsibility, but I told her I wasn&#8217;t going to let her go out with a camera that wasn&#8217;t up to the task. We went out to a nearby park the night before and I helped her get the ISO set approximately where I thought it would work for the football field. Her results were worlds better and, despite the weight of the gear, and having to tote it around the field for 2 hours, she&#8217;s even more excited about this sports photography gig now. I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing what she can do as she learns a bit more about composition. Next week she wants to do volleyball&#8230; that should be interesting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few gems from her game last night:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\nngg_shortcode_0_placeholder\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Great job, Nat!
