I have no 4K TV so no need for 4K videos for now.

So that's not a great argument.... I know because it's the same one I used in 2010 deciding between an sx10is and an sx20is. The main difference was the slightly cheaper 10mp sx10is took 640x480 video, and the newer 12MP sx20is took 1280x720 video. Well, of course my tv at the time only displayed 640x480, so what use was HD video to me?

The real difference from SD to 1080 is much more than from 1080 to 4K.

I know one person with a 4K TV and 4K service, and its wasted. Compressed so there’s more pixels but the resolution (detail)  is actually worse than my 1080 over the air signals
