Panasonic DMR-EX87 review

 

With such a rich history, Panasonic will take some beating

Format compatibility ; Picture quality ; Good EPG ; Loads of features

No DVD Audio compatibility

A great performer across the board, and well worth the reasonably high asking price

Panasonic DMR-EX87 review

 

Panasonic's DMR-EX87 has a single digital TV tuner, so anyone without digital TV reception should steer well clear.

The latest HDD/DVD recorder combi to roll off the Panasonic production line is the gorgeous DMR-EX87. It has a 250GB hard drive, can record onto any type of blank DVD, and delivers fantastic results at whatever it turns its hand to

Great HD quality, Amazing standard def pictures, Excellent editing tools

Only 2-channel DVD-Audio

A superb combi player, and one that excels in all areas
