Would love an RF remote, but that's not typical. I picked this one to find on eBay after reading 1600 and 1700 reviews here on audioreview. Happened to find various SD's on eBay. Overall great picture hues, color and steadiness. Very quiet door mechanism and spin-up.
Audio enhancement features a BIG plus.
Remote has no backlighting, but this is easily overlooked when considering the overall package. I was sceptacle about buying the played at Walmart for such a low price, but I have had for 2 months now, and eberything is working flawlessly. The 4X time is a good feature also, zoom resolution is very clean. No major weaknesses. Backlight on remote would be nice.
