DVD recorders managed to replace, one way or another, the well-known VCR recorder, and manufacturers understood the need for such devices to continuously struggle to deliver more intelligent and fully-featured spec sheets. One example would be the DMR-EZ17K DVD recorder from Panasonic, which offers lots of features at a decent price.



We all know how important each second is during a sports event. That’s why Panasonic assures us that using the DMR-EZ17K means staying close to the game every moment thanks to a high-speed Quick Start. Recording on DVD-RAM disc means instant catch of any scene as the device can start recording on second after you have switched the power on.



Furthermore, due to the presence of a high performance digital tuner, the Accutune, Panasonic’s DMR-EZ17K can both record from analog and digital sources while the signal processor makes sure there are no problems caused by noise or distortion. As for the material recorded on DVDs I can tell you it is at high standards (500 lines horizontal resolution instead of normally 250 lines) which means on a 4.7Gb DVD can fit up to four hours of crisp, vibrant and exceptionally detailed images.



The DMR-EZ17K from Panasonic can record on about any DVD or CD media, from common DVD-R / RW / RAM to dual layers DVD+R. However, recording is not the only important function of this device as it can play DVDs and CDs as well. DVDs are read with high accuracy and projected on screen thanks to a high-precision progressive video processor so you can enjoy even the most exciting movies full with special effects.



For about 200 US dollars this model can be purchased online or from a street shop and I assure you it will absolutely keep you close to your favorite TV programs.
