Panasonic DMP BD60
Panasonic has introduced many line-ups of its Blu-ray disc players ever since it produced its first Blu-ray player years ago. And no wonder: Panasonic is one of the contributors, and a developer and proponent of Blu-ray technology. The panasonic dmp bd60 is its latest creation, and it is a high definition Blu-ray disc player that produces high quality video; perfect for the home theater environment.
Aside from playing high definition Blu-ray movies, the panasonic dmp BD60 also has networking capabilities so that it can connect to its proprietary online media service called VIERA Cast. The VIERA Cast feature allows you to access to Amazon’s media database, where you can access, browse, select, purchase, and download videos on demand (VOD). With the VIERA Cast technology embedded inside the console, you don’t need to have an external box, a router, or a personal computer hooked to the Panasonic DMP BD60 to be able to access services in the Internet like Picasa albums, YouTube, weather channels, business sites like Bloomberg, and of course, Amazon video streaming.
The Panasonic DMP BD60, and particularly its cousins, the DMP BD70V and the DMP BD80, give the user convenience by letting him/her configure HDMI audio and video settings with a remote control. It is definitely easy to use. Aside from that, users can transfer media content and files from other sources through a USB slot or the SD memory card slot, and then view them all in high definition.
If you already have a Panasonic HDTV, then all the better. You can connect your Panasonic DMP BD60 to your HDTV, and then experience video quality at 1080p. This Blu-ray player can replicate the 24p cinema mode because it has a 1080/24p output, which means you can enjoy movies in cinema quality without trying to convert the format.
The Panasonic DMP BD60 has additional features such as lower power consumption and the BD Live service. You don’t need to worry about soaring electric bills when using this Blu-ray player; the DMP BD60 is rated with an Energy Star, which means it consumes around 15 percent when in standby mode, compared to the DMP BD35. The Panasonic DMP BD60 will automatically resort to this low power mode. Additionally, the player will revert to a standby power save mode so that it can turn off its quick-start function. This is all possible because there is only a single chip that processes all video, graphics, and audio operations of the player.
These features found in the Panasonic DMP BD60 are all a result of Panasonic’s pledge to be an eco-friendly company.
