Panasonic DMRES35VS VCR/DVD Recorder
I once found myself in the group of folks out there that didn’t like devices that do more than one thing. Who needs a talking toaster that makes you coffee?
Well I am happy to say that changed when I got my Panasonic DMRES35VS VCR/DVD Recorder.
Here’s a little official copy about the device:
It doesn’t get a whole lot easier than this. Keep a stack of DVDs, and you’ll never miss another program. One touch recording can be set to keep from recording over your favorites, and you can even watch one program while recording another with Time Slip. The Direct Navigator shows you thumbnails of every program on the disc as you browse through your burgeoning collection. You’re on your own, however, to figure out where to find the time to see what’s been recorded.
What is the major pro for getting this device? Well for me I have boxes and boxes filled with old VHS wrestling tapes that will probably never be released to DVD. I had been copying them from the VCR to the computer, and then burning them - but that just takes time I do not have. With my new toy here I can just start it up and let Panasonic do the rest of the work.
So if that is the pro, where is the con? Well the only bad thing I can say about it is it takes a college degree to figure out how to work all the features that come bundled in with it. I have learned the basics of copying a VHS tape to DVD - but the fancy stuff I will have to leave for another day.
All in all I am very happy with it though, and if you find yourself in the same boat I would highly recommend it.
