Reilly Diefenbach: Exciting stuff for photgraphers! Imagine a 4K 60" showing your jpgs and vids.
It's cool to think of 4x resolution and super panels, better cinemas etc but where are the program sources in the near future coming from? Except for viewing hi res photos, what are we going to watch? Upscaled Bluray or even very upscaled SD DVDs? So much of the off air rubbish is only SD still, and there is a massive investment out there in TV and home with only low def stuff. I guess technology marches on because it can.
Increasing the Megapixels from 12 (P300) to 16 (P310) is a backward step, I think. Its's still only a tiny 1/2.3"sensor and the lens is only bright (f1.8) at the wide end. Still no RAW either.
