James Nachtway is not on Magnum, but works for VII —Preceding unsigned comment added by SimondelaCourt ( talk • contribs) 10:46, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

Interesting as I find the information on Nachtwey's equipment, isn't it rather time-sensitive? At the very least I would imagine that he has upgraded from a Power Mac G4, and I'm sure his cameras are replaced and upgraded frequently as well. Perhaps at least a note of when this was accurate would be in order. -- INTRIGUEBLUE ( talk| contribs) 14:49, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
Looks like an ad for Canon to me.
How is it an ad? Musician pages usually mention equipment if the musician is partial to a particular company. People who have endorsed a company usually have those companies on their pages. People who will read this page are here because they are looking at his career, which Canon is a part of. IntrigueBlue is right about it being time-sensitive. It might be nice to list the two cameras he was using when the documentary was filmed and that he has appeared in Canon adverts. The Power Mac G4 thing is just absurd. Maybe if he is really outspoken about being a mac user, Apple should be mentioned. But naming the model number of his computer is like mentioning what he ate for dinner on April 9th, 1997. -- Jrader 21:34, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
I don't see what relevance his equipment has - other than for camera geeks or sales employees of Canon. He's said himself that the equipment you use doesn't determine the quality of your photographs. I'd like to propose that the section gets removed. It would be better dealt with under an article about Canon cameras mentioning Nachtwey by name. NBeddoe 21:22, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
In the movie War Photographer you can see him using several Canon bodies and L lenses. I think the only gear worth mentioning is his use of the 35 mm lens, he uses this lens the most. This is worth mentioning because of the fact that 35 mm on a fullframe body is pretty wide, and means that he has to get seriously close to people.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by SimondelaCourt ( talk • contribs) 07:32, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
It might be worth leaving the camera information in, on that basis that his agency is sponsored by Canon, to the effect they have a policy to only use Canon gear when shooting digital. This is explained on their website. When talking about a photographer, I don't think it's drawing too long a bow to mention their camera gear. I'd say computer equipment is superfluous though.
I have removed this paragraph. It fails the SYNTH part of WP:NOR as it analyses an article and references just the article itself, hence being the perfect definition of original research. Also, it grossly over-represents Nachtwey's part in the article in question. Daniel ( talk) 10:03, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
Looking at the WikiProject listing at the top of this talk page, how is Nachtwey related to maritime transport exactly? Palosirkka ( talk) 10:14, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
