Can you guys give me some advice? I'm a model but my photography skills are lacking, I like to take pictures of my own to send out or to put on my Instagram and I'd appreciate some tips to avoid them looking completely amatuerish.

Thanks!

Get a tripod and remote trigger, get an entry level DSLR, avoid shooting on auto, understand the exposure triangle, understand the rule of thirds, copy people who's work you like.

Adding to anon's advice, I'd recommend saving a bunch of pictures you like as inspiration, and try to reproduce them to the best of your abilities and equipment. Hopefully you'll understand the how's of photography.

Plein air painting. Most photographers suck at color correcting because they don't know shit about color in the first place.

going outside and painting what you see.

you can get cheap acrylic paint, black white red blue and yellow, and just mix them until they are exactly what you see. start simple: simplify a landscape into three shapes and then try to get the colors of each shape exactly right. you will realize you don't know how to compare values and colors as well as you think you do.

Really though just get a better 70-300 like the newest USM canon one that's $499 with the stupid screen.
IDK how you afford an R6 yet buy the cheap ass Tamron glass that's 10 years old

Photographer did a shit job at photographing her. He was going for her beauty but failed miserably. Blame the faggy photographer who can't even properly expose a shot. And proabbaly thinks that those shitty shadows and a difficult subject will earn him virtue signalling points.

I hate "photography" forum faggots who critique the subject but nobody gives a shit about the photographer and his retard-tier skills.

the exposure/development really was dog shit on this shot. the composition is just boring too. the "beautiful naked woman in photo" meme is a crutch for most photographers and taking away the " beautiful" parts makes it that much worse.

There's always something comically out-of-touch when a photographer goes for subjects like this; a deliberate mockery of beauty captured by someone who's incapable of seeing and recreating the real thing, and can only polish a turd by shooting with MF. I'm sure that camera has seen better days.

Workspace is great, but has two weaknesses. It compresses jpegs, and always sharpens images on export. There is no way to turn sharpening completely off with it.

Is it normal for 80s vintage super-telephoto lenses to give really soft results?
I know the pixel density of MFT makes it less than optimal, but it's been low cost to adapt this stuff than get native super-telephoto.

They are soft. No way around it. Images can be sharpened more with aggressive large radius high pass sharpening, but you can't expect miracles.
Soft lenses aren't necessary bad. They can be really useful for certain things and styles.

The problem was more using a 300mm lens with an unknown teleconverter of some... variety.
It seems impossible to accurately focus the lens in this configuration, as the image is always soft no matter what you do.
Also, foreground and background bokeh seem to break up into their constituent light waves with this setup. It's far worse than your ordinary chromatic aberration and purple fringing. Twigs turn into a yellow and purple blur.

The magnification is pretty significant though. Could be more usable for video rather than stills.

The telemacro capabilities do seem rather interesting though.

But using this vintage lens just makes me want to get the Olympus 300mm f/4 more and more. In part because AF just makes photographing fast moving birds way easier, and in part because the sharpness and Chromatic Aberration issues are nonexistent with that lens.
