Panasonic DMR-EZ27EB review
Punchy performance from no-nonsense, upscaling deck
1080p upscaling ; Multiformat compatibility ; User-friendly
Uninspired design ; No memory card support ; No DiVX playback
A fistful of features alongside a performance that packs a real punch, especially if you own a hi-def display that will accept upscaled images

Panasonic DMR-EZ27 review

Very expensive
This deck's recordings in the top quality modes are superb and playback is also excellent. It's a shame it's a bit pricey

Panasonic DMR-EZ27
Although Panasonic's DMR-EZ27 can claim 1080p upscaling, it's different from its rivals as it's also a DVD recorder. That's one more massive feature for your money than the Yamaha or the Marantz, but does its picture performance compete with the...
DVD recording; upscales TV broadcasts; easy to use; densely defined images
Some picture noise and stuttered movement

Panasonic DMR-EZ27 DVD recorder
As we transition from analog to digital television broadcasts, Panasonic releases a new DVD recorder with built-in digital tuner that will allow it to continue working past 2009 when analog broadcasts go off the air.
I won't lie. I miss the lack of a hard drive on this video recorder. But apparently including both a hard drive and a digital tuner in a digital video recorder would inflate the price astronomically due to content protection issues. Panasonic isn't the...

Panasonic DMR-EZ27
Good quality picture and sound. Very difficult to make a mistake when setting the record function as the various menu screens are informative. Very easy to plug in and use.
Quite slow when first switched on to become fully functioning. Various menus can be confusing at first.
