My CPC collection

[Joss]

I was putting a couple of CPCs from my collection together and taking some pictures I would like to share. . I was hanging them at zonadepruebas. To see the photos is not needed to understand spanish. Perhaps someone can need the short range images for web composition. Feel free to use them if you like.


I could get a couple of them thanks to people on this site. So, I would like to say a big thanks too

Nice collection and really good photos.

Nice photos - I still love the 664 colour scheme.


Which 464 keyboard do you prefer - the original chunkier keys?

[Joss]

Thanks for the comments. I got a flash for my camera last weekend to make photos for a friend who was asking me to be at the christening of his daughter to make the group photos and I used it to make the photos 

Which 464 keyboard do you prefer - the original chunkier keys?

Yes, I love it  . I forgot to say, the 664 with the blue keys was my first computer. It was bought by my father for me and my brother at 85 in Madrid. We hold it all this years and the keys work fine still now. We got a diskette with a compilation of Roland's games which let us enjoy the computer the first months ... sniff ... sniff .....

Wow, cool collection.

What did you clean them with to make them all so nice?

[McKlain]

Están limpios como una patena

Thanks for sharing with us

I had to post again because I wanted to say that the pictures show a nice comparison between the various coloured keys, the various heights of keys and the various models.

Nice collection and very well photographed. Don't you own a 6128? Or are you just a 64K collector?

Bryce.

No no, I have a bunch of them. Most of them Schneider, but sadly not all of them in working conditions and so presentable as this ones. I have 3x 6128. Two of them are the "battle" computers, to use with Symbiface, test games and so on. One Amstrad and one Schneider, because of the different connector (edge/centronics). But I find the 6128 (Amstrad/Schneider) a little boring for the photos .... 


I have to say I didn't clean them. They are as I got them. If you look closer at the blue-664 (the only one I didn't buy recently) it is not so clean, but I don't dare to touch it, just in case it looses his original bright    I like the original grey of the keyboard ....   Next time I pick them out I want to make more photos with the same model but Schneider and Amstrad together. I'll post them here. If someone need or like to have the photos with more resolution just drop me a pm. At the moment I have them too in raw-format in the camera-card. As long as I don't need room on it they won't be removed ......

Bluesbrothers is intending to make cassette covers as well as cartridge cases.

P.S do you have monitors for all those machines?

[dcdrac]

I have one old style CPC Colour Monitor, 1 Plus Series Colour Monitor and 3 Old style Green ones.

Beautiful photos showing off beautiful models. Since you take such good photos maybe you could do face-on shots?

I want to take pictures of the 6128 too. I'll do it the when I find some time

Would you do some nice ones where we can remove the background for the wiki?
