Panasonic recently unveiled its 2011 product line-up at Excel in London and among the hordes of brand spanking new home cinema products on show were three 3D-ready Blu-ray players – the DMP-BDT310, DMP-BDT210, DMP-BDT110 – and two 2D players, the DMP-BDT111 and DMP-BD75.

Cracking picture quality; Excellent new operating system; DLNA networking on an entry-level deck

No built-in BD Live memory; Light on features and connections; No AAC; WMA; WMV support

Blu-ray DVD player from Panasonic are ever popular model with superior playback capability and technology support. The new Panasonic DMP-BD75 Blu-Ray DVD Player is a well designed model carried out with high definition video playback capability amplified sound quality.

We have no complaints about the Panasonic DMP-BD75's performance, but we think it's too expensive compared to the competition. The excellent Sony S370 , for example, can now be found for around £120, and has BBC iPlayer, Demand 5 and LoveFilm streaming built-in.

Compact; Good picture quality; Excellent media-playback capabilities

Too expensive; No online portal

Compact, and environmentally friendly, the BD75 will appeal to people who want a decent player without any bells and whistles, and for a good value for money price. This player is neat and tidy and won't take grab centre stage under your television, but then that's not always a bad thing.

Unsurprisingly, 3D will continue to dominate home cinema in 2011, with a flood of 3D TVs and Blu-ray products hitting the market as the year unfolds. Indeed, Panasonic's new range of Blu-ray players includes four 3D-ready models, such as its flagship DMP-BDT310 .

Like I said, I only wanted a few features and I wanted cheap, and this looks to be exactly what i wanted. I would love to have a few more minor features work better/differently (eg: the tv volume/power buttons on the remote be programmable and not only viera-link) and if TVersity had better support...

Netflix button on the remote DLNA support (Tversity recognizes it) BluRay/DVD support Those 3 things are what I bought it for; It does more, but not seemingly much, and I'm fine with that; For the $80 I bought it for here, it's a perfect value.

DLNA - Tversity recognizes it as a PS3; This might be the cause of some of my problems, but sometimes the audio gets out of sync; Some shows, a quick rewind fixes this; Other shows can't rewind and just start over.

Always a purveyor of high-end rather than budget Blu-ray decks, it's no surprise that the majority of Panasonic's 2011 output is 3D-ready. 3D support is handled by Panasonic's DMP-BDT310, DMP-BDT210 and DMP-BDT110 decks, and while this DMP-BD75 model is resolutely 2D, don't make the mistake of...

Crisp 2D high-def; 35mm height; DLNA; DivX & DivX HD support

Limited digital file support via DLNA & USB; lacks optical audio; no WiFi option; no online content

Once again, the early adopters have benefited us all. Proof, if any were needed, is here, in the shape of Panasonic 's new DMP-BD75 Blu-ray player. True, it's not compatible with 3D content, and it has only a minimum of connectivity.

The entry-level range for Blu-ray players, which would be under the10 grand mark, wasn't even around three years ago. Today, thanks to the reduction of Blu-ray components across the globe, manufacturers can safely lower their price and offer a buyer a range in this entry-level segment.

very good product and worked right out of the pkg with no programming necessary for my Panasonic DMP BD-75
