Easy, tiger! No need to be rude. Personally I find it useful to hear others informed opinions about a deal, especially if they know more than I do. I can't see the OP being offended by any comments made there. Read it, don't read it. No one makes you do either on here.

No it's not. You've posted one deal in your whole 10 years here - it's got nothing to do with "flaming keyboard techies". I posted an informative thing that you could just skip if you wanted - at least people are adding to the conversation rather than making crappy analogies!

Life of Pi is a really interesting one - its mastered in 4K and a large amount of the cgi is rendered in 4K, however most of the camerawork happened with the ARRI Alexa, same camera as Skyfall and probably the first digital camera that outshines the very very best that Analogue can manage. It shoots natively in 2880x2160 that is then downsampled to 2880x1620 ARRIRaw, which can then, using seriously advanced tech, be restored to 3840x2160, however it is not "native" 4K. Planet Earth 2 used the newer model of this camera, the Amira, for some of the more remote shots this year (Antarctic episode especially) that can shoot 200FPS 2880x2160 which is incredible in its own right, but remember than when it comes out in "4K" if you're not fussed about Life of Pi this time round! :stuck_out_tongue:
Hope I haven't nerded you out!

And that is precisely why I'm not buying a 4k unit just to update my TV.
1080p is good enough for me.
If, when we need one and ours breaks and I can get a good deal on one I'll buy, but until then no chance.
Plasma, lcd, led, HD ready, 720, 1080, 3d curved, oled, now 4k ever get the feeling you've been had ?
I'm all for technology but I've looked at both 1080 and 4k can't see a massive difference from 8 feet I'm afraid.

Only Life Of Pi and X-Men: Days Of Future Past (i think) are true 4K films. Not upscaled to 4k or some weird resolution.

Both are upscaled from a 2K master I believe

I believe the Revenant is a true 4K.

I have just got a 65inch 4K tv and have only watched 4K on amazon prime but it looks no different to 1080 to me.

i find the 4k on Amazon to look poor compared to YouTube and Netflix when using the native app on the TV but it looks better on the ps4 pro for whatever reason.

this reminds me of the big debates a few years ago regarding screen sizes and 1080p vs 720 or even 1080i. when sat in a typical family living room you are not going to have much improvement. I imagine its still the same with larger screens and 4k vs 1080p .

Then you've purchased a carp tv or you don't have uber fibre internet to handle streaming 4k at its max

So now you're telling me that many "4k" films aren't even proper 4k?! Honestly I don't know why people are bothering with it.

They are 4k. Just not originally filmed in 4k. Like a lot of the early Blu rays were upscaled DVDs.
To be fair - they are better at upscaling now than they used to be, got much more powerful hardware to work with. Most of 4K blu rays comes from increased colour depth, not resolution. Unless you're sitting relatively close to the TV you won't be able to see the resolution increase.
Colour depth and Contrast though - no comparison!

4K isn't about the higher resolution it's about the HDR. You should see a noticeable difference between a 1080p set and a 4K set with HDR.
