We like:
Recording flexibility; universal compatibility; slimline design; ease of use; recording and playback performance
We don't like:
Only one Freeview TV tuner, so you can't record and watch different channels
You might also need:
HDMI cable; component cable; RGB Scart cable; blank discs
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Panasonic's DMR-EX75 is a hybrid recorder with an impressive specification and superb functionality. Recordings using either the 160GB hard drive or universal disc formats offer flexible control. And both recording and playback performance is excellent
