About Me

Dave Beckerman is a photographer specializing in black-and-white photography of New York City.

(That was once true.  For the last few years I've been heavily involved in what I'll call digital color painting.  I plan to be writing about this aspect of digital photography more often.)

His Web site BeckermanPhoto.com has been his major income source since December 1999 when his blog and photography store went live.

He was born and raised in the Bronx and set up his first darkroom at 15 years old. After a litany of jobs too depressing to list, including programming and filmmaking, he returned to his love of photography in 1999. Dave's photography career was propelled by the realization that a properly mounted and framed photograph was a finished work of art.

    There was a problem - at least for me - and that was that my customers wanted a) my signature and dating on the prints and b) I needed to see the prints before they went out to customers.

    Canon 60D

    I've been using the T1i for a while and like it very much. I was hankering for the fold out LCD in my blog when I got this e-mail:

    "I see that you’re lusting after a Canon 60D.
    I got one a couple of months ago, and like you was particularly interested in the articulated view screen, which works quite well.

    However, after using it for a while I wish that I’d just kept my XSi (which I gave to my nephew) or bought a T2i instead of the 60D.

    1) it’s MUCH heaver and poorly balanced compared to the Rebel, 2) the real problem is the interface is really f*?!ed up compared to the Rebel. The buttons on the back all seem counter-intuitive by comparison. I don’t know why they changed it, but it has been a disaster for me, especially the exposure dial."

    Anyone have a take on this?

    Trouble with Youtube / Magnify

    I haven't been able to find the video I made on YouTube

    with Magnify.

    I've searched for my login name: beckermanphoto (in quotes) and for the video title NewYorkersBeckerman.avi with and without quotes.

    Any ideas appreciated.

    Oh - as for suggest a topic - you might want to have a support category in the forum.

    Best,
