vdp Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 The article itself is quite moving. I hope to see the 401 exhibit in the coming days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nels Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 It's all good, but I heard he uses those big ugly Canon cameras with auto focus lenses and stuff. Yikes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_lee2 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 When he's not on the job and just walkin' around in NYC, I hear he takes a Leica screwmount! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_eavis Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 I saw the exhibition. It was extremely moving. Nachtwey never ceases to do great stuff that contributes to a better world. It seems odd to talk about equipment when it comes to Nachtwey becuase of his subject matter, but I couldn't help but notice the sharpness of his prints. So, as a Leica lover, I had to tip my hat to Canon after seeing his work up close. But do go and see the exhibition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Alex_ Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Equipment is irrelevant when considering Nachtwey's work. It is astounding. I own a copy of "Inferno" and it is stunning in a terrible way. It's difficult to page through in one sitting. I also have a DVD documentary on Nachtwey and he does indeed shoot Canon, both film and digital, when working.

peter_eavis Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 Yes, agreed. I give that dvd to anyone remotely interested in photography to motivate them but also show them that we can do good in some way with all this crazily-priced gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Alex_ Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 The documentary is called "WAR PHOTOGRAPHER", for those that are interested. It is available on Amazon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
