DMR-ES10 • DMR-ES30VS • DMR-EH50S
Additional Features
◆ Progressive Scan (480P) provides higher
icture resolution, sharper image quality, and
elimination of virtually all motion artifacts.
◆ Direct Navigator makes it easy to find a
previously recorded program on a disc. A list
of recording dates, times, channels and
(user-entered) titles are shown on screen.
When you move the cursor to a recording,
the segment is played in the background, so
playback can begin immediately upon
selection. Program deletion, protection, and
title input are also easy to perform. Can
handle up to 99 titles at once.
◆ Built-in TBC (Tme Base Corrector), 3D Y/C
separation circuitry and 3D digital noise
reduction ensure high-quality analog-to-
digital transfer when recording from analog
sources such as VHS or S-VHS VCRs. The TBC
delivers highly stable, natural images. The
3D Y/C separation circuitry minimizes the
dot crawl and color smearing. And, 3D
Digital Noise Reduction removes noise
components from the signal during playback.
◆ Random access makes it easy to perform
non-linear editing using just a single DVD
Video Recorder, with no need for additional
editing equipment.
◆ To ensure accurate reproduction of the
original content (in the case of DVDs, most
of
that content is film-based) the recorders
utilize advanced progressive scan playback
techniques and very accurate MPEG video
decoders to provide images that faithfully
represent the ones you’ve seen in the
theater.
◆ Picture Control (brightness, color, contrast,
gamma correction, sharpness)
◆ Dialogue Enhancer boosts the volume of
the center channel, from which most of the
principal dialogue emanates, when playing a
movie featuring Dolby Digital 5.1 sound.
◆ Cinema Mode diminishes glare and
improves the visibility of details in dark
scenes by automatically adjusting picture
contrast.
◆ Advanced Virtual Surround Sound (VSS)
makes it easy for those who don't have the
room or budget for a full-blown home
theater system to still enjoy superb audio.
Using Advanced VSS, a surround sound
system can be simulated by using only the
front two speakers.
◆ The ideal medium for long-term storage of your valuable
video images, a DVD-RAM disc preserves quality over time,
permits overwriting as desired, and takes up only about a
third of the space of a VHS cassette.
◆ A DVD-RAM discs can be rewritten up to an incredible
100,000 times and come in the double-sided (9.4GB capacity)
and single-sided (4.7GB) varieties in both cartridge (provides
additional protection) and non-cartridge types, all of which
can be used with the recorders. DVD-RAM discs can be played
back on Panasonic’s DVD-RAM-compatible DVD home players and portable players as well.
◆ Record up to 12 hours of video on 2-sided, 9.4GB DVD-RAM discs. These discs can also
be played back on a DVD-RAM-compatible DVD home player or portable player .
◆ The smaller, 8cm DVD-RAM and DVD-R discs utilized for Panasonic’s DVD camcorders can
be used in the DVD recorders.
◆ The DVD-RAM disc format is supported by major hardware and media manufacturers and
functions as the “bridge format” for compatibility with A/V and personal computing appli-
cations. Any DVD-RAM discs that are formatted for PC or other media use can be reformat-
ted for use with a DVD recorder.
DMR-ES30VS DVD Recorder/VHS Recorder Combo
Step-up Features:
◆ All the features of the DMR-ES10, the DMR-ES30VS adds a built-in VHS VCR. This allows you to
easily dub home movies and recorded VHS tapes onto either a DVD-RAM or DVD-R disc, and
from a DVD disc back to a VHS tape. The dual deck also includes one touch dubbing, making the
process truly user friendly.
DMR-EH50S DVD Recorder/Hard Disk Drive Combo
Step-up Features:
The DMR-EH50S features a 100GB hard drive, offering users up to 177 hours of recording time.
Plus, it can record onto DVD-RAM or DVD-R discs as well, making it ideal for compiling personal
movie libraries or for archiving, preserving, cataloging and enjoying favorite videos.
Your hectic schedule isn’t always compatible with TV program schedules, so being able to quickly
locate your favorite shows and record them for later viewing is important. The TV Guide On Screen
Electronic Program Guide lets you easily find your favorite programs and set up your DVD recorder
to record them unattended. Explore program listings up to 8 days in advance, searching by genre
or keyword to help narrow down your choices. Once you've found what you want in the listings,
simply select the program and your DVD recorder will automatically begin recording at the preset
time. The TV Guide On Screen Program Guide makes recording TV programs as easy as using a
PVR, only without subscription fees or telephone line hook-up.
