Sony Blu-ray Disc Player with 1080p Output

This unit does NOT support slow motion play back nor frame by frame advancing. Don't believe me? Don't blame you, the 5 or 6 "official" reviews I checked all fail to mention it. Go to esupport.sony.com, enter the model number, on the left side of the screen select FAQ, in the box enter "slow motion", click on the question to see Sony's answer. I am returning the unit, very disappointing.

Sony Blu-ray Disc Player with 1080p Output

Initially I was put off by the few negative reviews I saw on here and I was planning to get a Panasonic instead... then the local Sony distributor advertised a "special", this player along with 6 Blu-ray movies included.... and I thought, "good way to jump-start my blu-ray collection" because the titles are good.

I am glad that I bought this product.... it does NOT have a "long loading time" even when the default "normal" start is selected... although you can set "quick start" in the menu... then the player does not completely "turn off"... it remains warm and consumes power... and starts up quicker... although this was what I set initially, I found the "normal" start wait to be quite acceptable and soon switched it back to normal.

The crossbar is intuitive and easy to use and I cannot see why anybody would be unhappy about it.

Contrary to what some spec sheets on internet suggest... the product has
TOS link (optical) as well as coax digital output jacks.... although these only work

Which is better? This player or the Panasonic DMP-BD35K? I bought them both and tested them side-by-side!

I take my home theater hobby pretty seriously, that's why when it came time to invest in a Blu-Ray player (finally the wait is over!!!), I did a ridiculously great amount of research. I was willing to spend much more money on a blu-ray player, but the prices have come down so much, you don't have to! I narrowed down my extensive search for the right player to the Sony BDP-S350 and the Panasonic DMP-BD35K. **I bought them both** and did a side-by-side test.

I have some nice equipment, so I feel that the test was an excellent representation of what each of these players could do. My equipment includes a 100-inch Stewart screen with a Sony Pearl front projector, an Integra 9.8 DTC processor (with all the latest surround sound goodies), NAD amp, 7.1 Paradigm Signature speakers, and a dual M&K subwoofer.

I do understand electronics, but the Sony manual was really hard to follow. After only one call to Sony, I eventually got the player set up properly. After I set up the Panasonic, everything
