Default Vintage PCDP Pictoral Database (56k WARNING)

This is a work in progress...

I credit (or blame) Duncan's fantastic review round-up for giving me the vintage PCDP jones a few years ago. But the one thing I always thought the otherwise comprehensive compilation lacked was pictures. I've gone through a "personal PCDP journey" myself and while I could never match Duncan's reviews, I can share my pics and attempt to fill that hole. Enjoy!

This will be under construction for awhile but I'm going to start posting pictures and then eventually add comments/mini-reviews.

Here is the first batch of 22. Many more models to come...


Toshiba XR9459


Aiwa XP7


Technics SL-XP6


Technics SL-XP505


Technics SL-XP700


Panasonic SL-XP50


Technics SL-XP5

Sony D-555


Sony D-515


Sony D-465

Nice watermark too, so folks can't steal the pics for eBay. Nice touch. Ah, so nostalgic to see the D-15 and D-25 again! And the D-35 and D-555 look amazing...

Haha, thanks. One of the reasons why it took so long. I'm a photo-editing noob. Thanks to blessingx, by the way. It was over a year ago he gave me some tips on photography and photo-editing.

In terms of looks, out of the ones posted, my favorites are the D-311, SL-XP700 and the AZ6819.

But we have the D-J50 pic, among others, coming soon.
