Review on πŸ“€ Panasonic DMR-ES20S Silver DVD Recorder: High-Quality Recording and Playback by Alex Jones

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good entry level but 15 is better

Ignore the ES-15 which has more features and functions. But if you can get it cheaply, it's a good entry-level recorder. The next step is an HD recorder, which is much better for time-shifted playback, but the ES-20 is just as good if you have a lot of DVD-RW or DVD-RAM discs. RAM is better suited for editing commercials and creating chapters. It's a great machine for transferring VHS home movies to DVD-R. DVD is actually better quality than VHS because the ES20 cuts out the noise. Very happy with it.

Pros
  • Expensive but decent
Cons
  • Appearance
