And beware of JVC also.
Note that the quality of tuners in recorders can vary a lot. Panasonic is the only breed I have found where the tuner section levels with the best. I had a stand alone Sony tuner and the Panasonic gave an identical picture.
Note however that the circuitry in all of the cheaper ranges in all brands has been cut to the core so you get what you pay for. Just see the weight of the latest recorders compared to those 20 odd years ago.
We make better recordings on standard tape with Panasonic S-video recorders than we can get from the standard units (we have a few in this house!!!).
Good hunting
