I have to say from someone who dabbles in DSLR photography I know I would have to mess around quite a bit to gets pics like that. Very impressed :)

Anyway did you find any more info out?

I'm actually just using my mobilephone A Sony Ericsson W902 with a 5 megapixel camera.

I'm actually thinking of, switching it out with a real camera!

But thanks for the praise.

Wow indeed. I thought you were using some nice DLSR with a 50mm lens for the close shots, but well done to you (and the phone) for such great shots. Interesting how the phone has varied the focus across your shots, almost like you would if shooting manually and choosing to do so. Must just be the idiosyncrasies of the phone camera.

The nut behind the handle needs constant adjustment!

They are fabulous pictures.

What camera and lens did you use? I take it you are shooting in ambient light with a tripod?

Re: AM I CRAZY, OR IS THAT A BEOMASTER 6001?

I'll do some tonight though I cannot promise such good pictures as yours! The nut behind the handle needs constant adjustment!

My Beomaster 6001 has the same typenumber as my Beomaster 6000: 2251

I personally prefer Beomaster 4401 rather than Beomaster 4400! Could you show a couple of pictures of the whole Beomaster 4401?

Interesting! Same type number as an early 6000, described as a 6000 on the label and an early serial number. You are obviously correct that it is a prototype though why relabel it as a 6001 is beyond me! Seems rather complicated unless they were thinking that the previous existence of a 6000 would be confusing. Never stopped them before though! I'll do my 4401 label when I get home!

First a photo of the label:

And another photo, from the left side on the backside:

Peter:

I think that the "1" instead of "0", must characterize, that it's a prototype and not the final product.

My father worked in a Radio and TV shop from late 70’s until 1981, as the Beomaster 6000 was released, and he says, that it always had been possible to buy Beomaster 6000 with a Remote Control, so I don’t think, that it was a prototype for the Remote Control. And why should Bang & Olufsen change the name on some of the functions?

Beocool:

All buttons and so on, on the front, has the same functions, they're just called something different.

Discussing this with a colleague, we wonder if this was when they were introducing the remote control - the first 6000s did not have this. This may have been a test bed. Very nice condition and beautifully photographed.
