[QUOTE="KenMasters, post: 569116, member: 517"] Actually it's a significantly bigger change. All that changed between SD and HD was the resolution (and the addition of native 24fps playback). Now we're moving to much wider 10-12 bit colour gamuts, meaning richer, deeper colour and no more banding (our current 8-bit system only displays 219 shades). TVs will be able to read and correctly map the gamma of content, displaying it using a new adaptive method which simulates how our eyes deal with changes in light in the real world, requiring much brighter TVs - we're talking the realisation of TVs that truly seem as though you're looking through a window. By comparison HD and SD will look dull and lifeless. This is really exciting technology. It will take time to mature, we just aren't technologically there yet (we can't hit the specified brightness or colour and 8K has still to make it to market) - it's an amazing, forward thinking standard.
