BetterPhoto Instructor- Jim Zuckerman
“Few people are able to spend most of their time pursuing their passion in life. I'm one of them, and I feel blessed to have had a love affair with photography since I began taking pictures.” – Jim Zuckerman
In 1970, Jim decided to abort his intended career as a doctor in favor of photography and has never regretted it. His career has taken him to over 60 countries, and he has seen and photographed wondrous things.
Jim specializes in wildlife and nature, international travel, and digital effects. In addition, he also shoots photo- and electron microscopy, children, and other subjects. For 25 years, he shot a medium format camera, specifically the Mamiya RZ 67, for its superior quality. However, he went digital in 2004 because the technology finally equaled or surpassed medium format. He now shoots with the Canon 1Ds Mark II digital camera with a variety of lenses.
Jim has written 12 books on photography which are sold in 30 countries around the world. His images have appeared on scores of magazine and book covers, calendars, posters, national ads, trade ads, brochures, and corporate promotions.
