An important message is that if you want any real benefit from 4K or 8K then you need a higher frame rate. Still pictures can use the full resolution but as soon as anything moves you lose a lot.
I saw a demo of NHK ultra high resolution TV during the Olympics. Not sure whether the screening was in 4K or 8K nor do I know the frame rate but it was impressive. On a big screen with wide angle shots you could see all the detail. It was like sitting in one of the best seats in the stadium. |
I wouldn't think you'd necessarily need a higher frame rate, but you'd definitely need a better bit rate than that at which current high-def video is encoded.
EDIT: Ah, I see what you mean, though, now that I've read the article. Yes, motion blur would still be a factor at 4K resolution given current frame rates.
