Panasonic DMP-BD30K Blu-ray Disc Player
Comments:
After living with Panasonic's latest Blu-ray Disc player for a few weeks, we've only grown more attached to it. This is one solid high definition player, for a very affordable price.
Review Verdict: Our first impressions of the DMP-BD30 haven't changed much over time - the player gets it right where it matters - in the reproduction of high quality color-rich 1080p images, and in its ability to pass next generation lossless audio surround soundtracks

Panasonic DMP-BD30 review
Comments:
Panasonic's DMP-BD30 was one of the first Blu-ray Disc players to support BonusView, the Blu-ray specification for watching picture-in-picture content.
Review Verdict: Sadly, the plethora of extras can't make up for the Panasonic DMP-BD30's relatively lacklustre image and sound quality.
