Good Player – DVD and Blue Ray
the BD30AK is all you need. enhances regular DVDs and plays Blue Ray just like you would expect. If you can find one of these at a decent price, get it.

Industry not mature
I own this product (firmware 2.6 newest) along with 3 brand new movies. The Panasonic will only read 1 of the movies (Fearless). As for Last Samurai and Flyboys…

Extremely pleased.
Absolutely awesome picture. For the money, this Panasonic is the best on the market. I don’t own any video game system, so I can’t comment on that, like everyone else.

This blu-ray player is what they say it is. I like the fact that I can use my camera’s memory chip to show my pictures on the TV.

Ergonomics better then ps3
It’s the second blu-ray I ‘ve bought. Not surprisingly, it’s remote is much more user friendly then my ps3. Load time is comparable (quick for blu ray).

Panasonic BD-30K
I was looking for a Blu-Ray player; that also plays AVCHD disk. The AVCHD playback feature works. I perferred the BD-30K; over the newer model, beacause the newer model BD-35; had…

Died After 1 day out of the box!
Product worked for one day. It then would not work the second day. It would not read any discs it would cycle and never play the discs.

First of all Amazon needs to go back to the old format that only allowed people who actually bought the product on Amazon to review it. I bought this product on ebay and so far I love it. The quality is amazing even for regular DVD’s. I love that I can plug in the SD Card from my digital camera, the quality of the 12 megapixels pictures look terrific. The two people who wrote 1 star reviews for this product DO NOT EVEN OWN IT. Look at all their reviews, they trash anything blu-ray and give anything HD DVD 5 stars… bias. Anyway, for the price this is an amazing unit. Stay away from the other ones that might be around $300 (Sony, Samsung) because they are not using the final blu-ray format that allows for picture-in-picture (1.2) or the final one 2.0. This one is using the most up to date format, altough the 2.0 format will allow for content download from the internet, I am perfectly happy with this one (Thank you to the people who corrected my mistake with the format). The best you can do go get rid of reviews that are not “real” is to report them as “not helpful” or answer no to the question of “was this review helpful?”. Oh and finally don’t waste $100 on a Monster HDMI cable… mycablemart dot com has great quality cables for a fraction of what other retailers sell them for.

A point of contention
I think its fair to offer my experience with the 30K. I bought my 30K in Nov 07 when it first was released directly from Panasonic Direct.
