Panasonic DVD Player with HDMI Upscaling and Viera Link
Amazon Price: ?149.99
Customer Review: DMR-EZ27
This DVD player does exactly and more than we had hoped for. It is easy to use and the picture quality when linked by HDMI to our TV is exceptional. What else is there to say?
Customer Review: Decidely average and many restrictions.
Nice looking item, easily installed and very promising with lots of connection possibilities. I purchased this to record my old VHS/MiniDV collection on to DVD, sadly it’s not easy. The DV input keeps flashing a grey screen on the recording every few, random moments. That’s OK I’ll go for the Svhs connection then. Nope, that’s no good either, it flashes up random “copy protected” messages concerning my home made video snaps, and stops recording! So finally I have the RCA inputs, ok so it’s only VHS so the quality shouldnt matter that much. That works but you cannot put your own chapters in, for some obscure reason you can only do that on RAM discs!! So now all I have is a DVD recorder where all I can do is record a 3 hr tape in one hit and keeping my fingers crossed tightly!! Horrible. Finally the recorded DVDs seem to only come out in 4.3 which is a nuisance. I had a cheap Lite-On before and that was much easier and far less hassle. I contacted Panasonic about the problems and they basically said sorry, that’s the way it works. The Freeview section and guide are excellent, making future timer recordings very easy indeed. Well impressed with that side of it. You can even switched the machine off and it remembers it’s timer settings days later. I thought I’d go for a quality item this time as Lite-On are going down the pan, and I have been bitten. In future I’ll just buy cheap and it wont hurt so much. Very disappointed with this purchase from DABS but unfortunately the returns procedure is so long winded it means I am stuck with it. It wasnt available from Amazon at the time or I would have bought it from them, as their returns service is a healthy 10/10.

Customer Review: brilliant, simply the best!
I bought this recorder on amazon 12 mths ago after much time spent sussing the different ones available. Quite simply it turned out to be the best money I’ve ever spent! it is absolutely superb,Even now all this time later I am over the moon with it! My only regret is that I didn’t go for the next model up with the bigger hard drive but mine is fine.If your looking for a good recorder, honestly, this is it! Also of all the articles I have bought via amazon, I have only ever had a problem once, and amazon sorted it immediatly! They are good to deal with, and cheap.Finally, my recorder is now down to half of what I paid for it! So what further encouragement do you need!
Customer Review: BRILLIANT!!!…(erm, mostly)
I’ve had this for a while now and definitely don’t regret buying it. Like all the best technology it doesn’t get in the way of what you want to do - setting up a program from the epg is a doddle - no faffing around with discs; just press a few buttons, go out and come back to a perfectly watchable recording (I’ve only ever used Standard Play - I haven’t even bothered to use the highest XP quality so I guess that tells you something). However there are a few things that do bug me; once a timed recording has started the machine is locked and there seems to be no way to set another recording. Also of mild irritation is the remote - the two buttons that (for me at least) get the most use - the FF and Rewind buttons - are two of the smallest and tucked away under the slide-back cover, which makes things real fiddly when viewing in the dark. Also the FF speeds aren’t quite right; when FF’ing through adverts X3 is too slow and X4 is too fast. It needs a X3.5!!! Apart from these minor operational foibles I feel this is good bit of kit and I recommend it.
