Wall mounting is advantageous where the floor is not rigid. If you live in a house with concrete floor, wall mount is not really needed.

Oh yes, that's true. My dancing days were lived in wooden-floor houses

Its been a while since we saw anything spinning here. Thought Ill post some photography pictures of some of the TTs I owned or auditioned but shot by me and ones which are not posted in any of my other threads.

Some of the shots through the DSLR....

Note: Please expand to see high resolution shots.

Thanks Saket. In fact I also particularly liked that shot as the platter looks really classy .

I'm planning an exclusive shoot for my 1200 and 401 next month. Ill post them right after.

Cheers...

Okay so anyone watching the Hollywood movie series Suits? The character Harvey Specter has loads of vinyls in his office room but I cannot make out the make and model of his TT thaty he plays, looks costly though, the cart seems to be Ortofon 2M Red but thought in case anyone has ever watched it and has any idea

@RecordPlayer, that is treat to eyes. Must be musical to ears.

I remember reading somewhere that audio equipment needs to be shot with the camera at a distance and zoomed in. Only then will the right proportions be captured.

That's right Reuben. As these pictures are shot in high resolution you can always crop your image. Cropping and positioning your image is very important in photography.

Typically, once you take your shots they must be post processed i.e. cropped, adjusting levels, brightness/contrast, sharpening etc. Now one must be careful not to over process the image as the end result will look artificial.

Now, if you are trying to get detail for parts like Cartridge, Emblem/Logo or anything specific, its better to zoom in and shoot. Focal distance is important here.
