If you are in the market for a DVD player that has recording capabilities, then the Panasonic DMR-EZ28K DVD recorder may be for you. T
The integrated tuner for this Panasonic DVD Recorder is very good. The EZ28 reliably locks a very low power "oldies" station from the correct direction that none of the other devices will lock.
This DVD Recorder is programmed VCR style. The menus are completely adequate, though a few things could have been improved to reduce the number of button presses. All in all, nothing to complain about. Recordings are very reliable and you can use DVD+ R and multi use DVD-RAM disks.
This Panasonic DVD Recorder is also very impressive when it comes to recording your old VHS tapes to DVD. The results are as good as the original tapes!
Here is what a satisfied customer had to say about the Panasonic DMR-EZ28K DVD Recorder:
E. Campbell great picture
I bought this model based on other reviews, mostly for the similar Panasonic DVD recorder that did not have a TV tuner built in. That model was sold out everywhere, so I got this one for a bit more, and have no info regarding the television tuner portion. I have had four other set top DVD recorders, and they all were at least in the ballpark picture quality wise, for 1 hour recordings. This machine has a fabulous picture, even on 2 hr. and 4 hr. speed settings. It also has the ability to record a flex interval, meaning a 2:15 movie for example will be dedicated to the best possible disc capacity. My other machines require you to run at 4 hr. speed with poor results. The on screen setup and menu are OK, not best in class, but no real complaints. Playback of regular DVD's is also fine. Panasonic is the best I've seen.
