Panasonic Diga DMR-EX77EG-S

Panasonic Diga DMR-EX77EG-S ... industry-leading position in recordable DVD products, Panasonic offers DIGA series DVD recorder - the DMR-EX77 - that offers 1080p image quality in both recording and playback, easy operation, and improved networking capabilities.

This model comes equipped with the HDMI terminal, which allows easy, single-cable connection to compatible equipment. It also offers Panasonic's proprietary VIERA Link functions for linked operation of other AV devices, and these functions are now even more convenient.

This model also offers improved image quality with 1080p technology. By combining intelligent I/P Conversion and 1080p Up-Conversion technologies, DIGA's 1080p technology renders high-resolution 1080p images from DVD movies and TV broadcasts. The DMR-EX87 is equipped with a new digital tuner that achieves stable signal reception even under poor signal conditions, such as when signals are reflected by surrounding buildings. The tuner also prevents the generation of block noise. This optimizes the high image and sound quality of digital broadcasts.

Playback environment is also taken into consideration through a thorough approach to ensure the best sound possible. A special new damper is mounted closer to the HDD than in the previous models, which efficiently suppresses drive vibrations to prevent cabinet resonance. A unique Panasonic technology that optimizes fan speed control has dramatically reduced fan noise, which also lowers overall operating noise. This special damper and reduced fan noise combine to give DIGA a whisper-quiet operating performance of 30 dBA.

The DMR-EX77 is equipped with an SD Memory Card slot that enables a wide range of easy networking possibilities. Users can view movies recorded on a SD Memory Card or SDHC Memory Card by simply copying the content to the recorder's hard disk or to a DVD-RAM disc. The slot also makes it easy to transfer digital still photos or moving images from a SD card to the hard disk or a DVD-RAM disc, providing a simple way to store images from several sources in a single location.

A DV input terminal makes it easy to upload moving pictures from a digital camera, and the pictures are saved in playlist format for easy retrieval, editing and archiving.
