every video game,dvd,pc game has a region code. the number in the corner of the game cover. us is region 1 and ntsc format. asia is 7(?) and pal format. look for the region code for your country. ask for favorite retailer for specific information.

the one I ordered was USA. worked fine on my ps3, my nephews ps3 and when my cousin moved out. he told me he played it on a friends ps3 and it played fine. I have never really bothered with regions when I ordered thru amazon. Doesn't UK Amazon ship out UK Verizon games? that's why I don't really trip on version. Since I am on USA amazon they have always shipped out USA version games. I found so far the only exception is when the seller themselves have a different region game that's usually an import. but they say it on the info.

I believe that PAL and NTSC does not apply to digital source data - only when it is converted to analogue (which is becoming obsolete) . That is why DVD makers put in the wretched region codes - to continue to prevent folks in Europe and the US from trading discs. HD it seems is code free.

I do not have anything with the PAL format, so I don't know. Maybe someone else has tried it. Sorry I couldn't help you more.

Has anybody actually tried this on the 5960 to see whether it works? I'd like to hear some success stories before I try it. I plan to go to the UK next year. Are most of the DVD's sold in the UK PAL Region 2 or "All Regions" ? Several of the British Railway ones I've ordered are Pal and "All".

It says it's open for NTSC and PAL but subject to region codes. That should mean it's locked to the region it's purchased in/for.

Hi Taofiki, my model does do both NTSC and PAL, but not all models do. You would need to make sure that the specifications indicate either PAL or both, or give the option to upgrade from only NTSC to both. That is an option you have to pay for though.

No, it only supports NTSC. If you need to use PAL there may be an option to order the camera from the factory set up for PAL.

PAL is European , right? The European DVDs will play, but NOT the blurays. It only plays blurays from the USA.

Amazon's site has a bit of confusion on this issue - many of the players will indicate NTSC/PAL compatible but what this means is that the dvd player has the ability to be connected to either a US or UK television not necessarily does this mean it will play a region 2 disk. If you want multi region player in order to play either region 1 dvds or region 2 dvds then I would recommend going with one that specifically indicates "region free" or "plays region 1,2,3,4,5....."

No, if I remember correctly PAL is a European mode of Video. I am pretty sure that is correct but I could be wrong, if so very sorry!!!

This mostly means there is region restriction, though NTSC/PAL does not deal with the region.But usually, USA uses the NTSC picture format and Asian countries use PAL picture format. If you try the CD/DVD/picture CD from outside USA that is not NTSC format, it will either show you black and white picture or the audio will be gone. From my experience, Sony does not bring out multi-region devices as they support most of the blood sucking money thirsty enterprises who want to make sure you get the product for a specific usage while they charge you for the so called 'quality' and provide just the standard features.

It has NTSC and PAL display modes. It changes the aspect a little bit. As for PAL-format DVDs, I am not sure.

The camera I have is NTSC only. A PAL model may be available but I am not aware of it.
