Sony’s first 4k Home Movie Projector, any ideas?

 

 

 

When one says high-definition show, you most likely still assume 720p or 1080p. however there is another contender that delivers even crisper, clearer, and a lot of life-like images: 4K displays, that have four times the resolution of 1080p screens. This fairly new technology hasn't nevertheless caught on, and 4K hardware and content are solely barely getting down to pop up. Take for instance Sony's initial 4K home theater projector — announced last year and showcased at the 2012 client Electronics Show (CES), it's currently obtainable for purchase by anyone willing to plunk down $26,000 for it.

                                                                 Tecca had some eyes-on time with the technology at CES, and in an exceedingly side-by-side comparison with a 1080p show, we will say 4K comes out on high. On atiny low screen, however, 4K does not create a distinction. the larger the screen is, the a lot of you may appreciate this pixel-rich show technology, and also the resolution shines even a lot of when the photographs and videos are projected at massive viewing size.

 

                                                                 Right now, though, high-definition content which will profit of 4K displays are quite rare. Peter Jackson created a splash by filming The Hobbit in 5K resolution — the film was criticized for being too life-like — however it'll take a short while before you'll get a duplicate of it for a home screening with family and friends.

YouTube has 4K viewing enabled, however each clip can take a short while for you to load as a result of files are clearly huge, the same as the scale of TimeScapes: the primary 4K movie you'll download. TimeScapes, a timelapse cinematography of the yankee South West, is accessible in 1080p format on iTunes and 1440p format on its web site. however if you happen to own a 4K TV or if the $26,000 Sony projector is at intervals your budget, you'll additionally get it in 4K format worth of $299.95 sent to you as a 140GB file saved on a transportable onerous drive.
