Panasonic's Next-Generation DMP-BD30 Blu-ray Player

Panasonic's new DMP-BD30 High Definition 1080p Blu-ray Disc player is the first Blu-ray player to be introduced with Final Standard Profile, which adds new advanced functions like Picture-in-Picture and Audio Mixing to the Blu-ray movie experience. Picture-in-Picture allows you to watch a movie while having the film's director or an actor pop up to discuss a scene, or with an animated movie you can see an actor performing their character's voice over, while watching the movie. 

The Panasonic DMP-BD30 has a SD Memory Card slot for playback of High Definition content recorded in the AVCHD format, or viewing digital still images recorded to an SD Memory Card. The player also features Deep Color Compatibility, and HDMI 1.3B that enhances step gradation from 8-bit 256 up to 12-bit, 4,096 step gradation. The DMP-BD30 also provides1080/24p playback, for the same 24-fps (frames per second) reproduction as the original movie. An included EZ-Sync HDAVI Control allows users to operate their Panasonic home theater system with one remote.

Panasonic's DMP-BD30 Blu-ray Player is expected in stores this November at a cost of $499.95.
