'Its smallish buttons lack backlighting, but the play button, along with an eight-way directional pad, provides good tactile feedback for effective use in dimly lit environments.'
'Good price for its features. 1/2 as thick as 2nd generation models.'
'It did not display the full resolution of the test pattern and the image was unstable at many locations.'
'The HD-A35 measures nearly 17 inches wide by two-and-a-half inches tall and almost 13 inches deep, weighing about seven-and-a-quarter pounds.'
'disappointing performance'
'The many dark scenes are never murky on a good display, and there aren't more than a handful of shots here that aren't in tight, crisp focus, including long shots with a startling depth of field.'
'On that basis, the HD-A35, at a little over 2" high and 7.5 lbs soaking wet, looks a bit scrawny next to the "old" HD-XA1 .'
