Panasonic DMR-E75VS Progressive-Scan DVD Recorder/VCR Combo
detractors are dead wrong
the only reason i gave it 4 stars was due to inconsequential feature lacking. otherwise 5 star all the way.  yes manual is difficult but with patience completely understandable.  this is the first review i've ever written & really the only reason i'm writing it is to correct the misconceptions and to stop people from being scared off of this machine due to misinformation. first of all finalize. secondly,and this is the real reason i'm writing,all brands of 4x,sony's 1-8x, and in response to an earlier review my memorex 8x work perfectly. 4x is very hard to find now so i've been buying the 8x at first shyly now with confidence. <br />i use sony 1-8x,verbatim 4x,tdk 4x,memorex 4x, and now memorex 8x <br />which ABSOLOUTELY WORKS.  buy with confidence.  by the way have had this machine for quite a while and have dubbed & recorded 40+ discs so far.
