Following the news of its release in January on our blog, Cnet has now reviewed Panasonic’s latest mid-range 3D Blu-ray player – the DMP-BDT110, praising its excellent picture quality and a stylish finish.
They highlight the resolution of 3D and 2D images on offer as well as the new menus and additional features:
‘We found that 3D material worked brilliantly. The BDT110 offers a few interesting 3D options, for example, you can adjust the depth of the 3D image via the player itself, allowing for a more immersive or more subdued 3D effect, as you see fit. Interestingly, Panasonic also provides an option that allows you to put an overlay around the edge of the 3D image. The idea is that it softens the transition between the 3D pictures on the screen and the harsh edge of your TV. You can choose from several colours too.’
Also credited are the new internet options including the Skype function which has been added to every model in Panasonic’s 2011 range:
‘We particularly like the drop-down front panel that hides the disc tray. You can access Panasonic’s Viera Cast online service via the player’s Ethernet or wireless connectivity. Then you can use the company’s various video-streaming apps or the brilliant Skype application. We’re really big fans of Panasonic’s Skype app and the optional USB video camera.’
So what’s the conclusion?
‘The Panasonic DMP-BDT110 is a classy machine, and well worth considering.’
High praise indeed so visit Cnet for the full review.
