Are there any problems with the Panasonic dmr-ez485v recording problems?
The problem with most of the Panasonic recorders is a high level of Marco blocks in the picture. From close range this can be seen in detail. Most of these Panasonic recorders have digital tuners which help with the picture a tad. S-VHS player with a TBC will help a ton. Yes use S-Video cables….
Which is better the dmr-ez485v or the ez-28?
Sorry to be so blunt but the EZ-48v is that bad. If you could do without the VHS part, the EZ-28 is a fair amount better, or even better if you could do without the tuner would be the EA-18. The VHS combo tunerless EA-38v is also better than your EZ-48v but very little is posted about it.
Which is better Magnavox or Panasonic dmr-ez485v?
Better for reliability than any of the current Panasonics is the Magnavox 2160a with a HDD, it’s available new at Walmart and occasionally (not currently) refurbished at J&R electronics out of NY for $159, a real steal. If you want to read more users remorse on the EZ-48v check out this thread at AVS.
Is the Panasonic ez 48V video recorder good?
Unfortunately you’ve got the worst of the Panasonic EZ recorders, which for the most part aren’t all that great. The EZ-48v is full of bugs, quirks and design flaws. You can exchange and return all you want and you’ll probably not get one that works for much longer a month. Sorry to be so blunt but the EZ-48v is that bad.
