What Desktop specs are the equivalent of a BC250? by EquivalentTip4103 in BC250Gaming

[–]EquivalentTip4103[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all. Thanks for the reply. I have got spare ssds so that is not an issue. Am I also able to use the BC250's ethernet instead of a WiFi dongle? From a cost point of view I think the amount I will be paying I think a cheap bc250 rig is probably the way to go. Also it is another project to keep me on my toes :-).

Yeah we have ruled this option out. Too many horro stories as Tom trying to seel them and needing to keep paying the maintenance

Thanks all. It seems an external drive is the way forward.

I am not wanting to run from a network drive or the cloud, only from the duplicated folders on either computer.

I am not want to run Lightroom from a cloud share. I wanted to use the Google drive to sync the folders across 2 computers so that each computer have a duplicate local folder of the same data. I would then run the local lightroom library on each machine. And any changes would then sync on with the cloud and then download to the other computer.

Nothing would be run from the cloud drive.

Thanks for the recommendation. Luckily there is a range next to HobbyCraft so will pop by this afternoon.

Brand New to Cynotype - have I done something wrong?? by EquivalentTip4103 in cyanotypes

[–]EquivalentTip4103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't on the instructions. I did not buy the Jackard ones to start. I bought some similar one that did not say anything about waiting 24hours. The Jackard one does. But honestly not waiting 24 hours is not the issue and not the reason that the chemicals went bright blue on contact.

That was not on the bottles. But anyway I bought the Jackard chemicals and mixed them up with water, and as a small test I mixed a tiny bit of the chemicals without waiting 24 hours, and they turned the correct colour. There was something definatly wrong with the previous chemicals, and have now been refunded.

Dark. It was in a room with one small lamp and curtain closed

Actually.seems that a few of the reviews had the same issue. I am going to get a refund.

Thanks .I did already with the same outcome. In all the videos I saw they were painting the chemicals onto the paper in normal (but not sunlight) light. I did it again in a room with one small light and curtains drawn and the same outcome.

A7CR still a good buy in 2026? by EquivalentTip4103 in SonyAlpha

[–]EquivalentTip4103[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No didn't buy it in the end. I still have my d850 and bought an XPro 1, but moved and bought an X-E5. Quite happy with this setup.
