LG Electronics have released a DVD-recorder that they claim, not only looks good, is technologically advanced but also comes with an affordable price tag - starting at less than a thousand dollars.

LG has launched two slim and stylish silver DVD recorders that are easy to use but packed with all the latest features. The two models, DR4812W and DR4922W, feature PAL progressive scan that delivers high quality picture viewing.

Each model has a DV input which means you can plug your camcorder direct into the DVD-recorder and download your home movies directly onto disc with virtually no loss of quality.

The DR4922W model has a “memory multi-slot” which allows you to insert the memory card from your digital camera and burn your images directly onto DVD. The “memory multi-slot” is compatible with Memory Stick, Secure Digital Card (SD) and Multi Media Card (MMC).

LG’s DVD recorders have a one-touch instant recording function and feature multi-format recording for ease of use. These units also let you play audio and MP3 CDs, Windows Media Audio files, JPEG and Kodak picture CDs via multi-format playback.
