onderstaande artikel gaat over UHD vs FHD.....maar er wordt ook ingegaan op HDR en dat stukje post ik hier even.

"UHD is still somewhat a work in progress. This year's models still don't conform to a number of pending, still in development or just announced highly-technical upgrades such as HEVC, HDCP 2.2, HDR and HDMI 2.0a.
For the average viewer, the subtle differences these H-acronyms upgrades will provide are admittedly hardly earth-shaking or even noticeable, with the singular exception of HDR, High Dynamic Range.
HDR brings a demonstrably higher degree of color, both in intensity and the number of colors and how accurately they're displayed. You can see the difference HDR makes on photos you snap on an iPhone with HDR switched on or off.
Dolby Vision, Dolby's HDR TV technology, will be included in Vizio's just-announced 65- and 105-inch Reference Series models, the first UHDs with HDR (no pricing or availability has been announced).
In a demo at the Vizio event, the improvements HDR deliver in detail and depth are startling. Not only are colors brighter and more life-like via HDR, but image aspects heretofore undisplayable because of the limitations of LCD sets and, to a lesser extent, plasma displays, can now be seen".
Above are freeze frames from Man of Steel displayed on a 2014 Samsung UHD on the left and on a Vizio Reference Series set on the right. On the Vizio, you can see Russell Crowe's Jor-El clearly despite an explosion flashing in the background. But Crowe/Jor-El is completely bleached out by this explosive flash on the Samsung, which is unable to display the wide breadth of color that HDR supplies.
HDR, however, requires a UHD capable of displaying its expanded color range, such as OLED, quantum dot or some other physical LCD enhancement. Vizio's Reference Series sets include just such a phosphor-based wide color gamut enhancement (think quantum dot light).
Movies and TV shows also have to be mastered in HDR to be seen on an HDR-enabled UHD. Thus far, only Warner Bros. has started mastering its films in HDR; Edge of Oblivion (aka Live, Die, Repeat), Man of Steel, The Lego Movie, Into the Storm and the first two Robert Downey Jr. Sherlock Holmes films will be the first movies mastered in Dolby Vision -- soon to be streamable from Vudu -- with more to come.
Unfortunately, each UHD maker wants to develop its own proprietary HDR platform rather than simply adopt Dolby Vision. Dolby Vision, however, is an optional specification in the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray standard, but it's unclear if the HDR advantages of a Dolby Vision-mastered Blu-ray will be seen on a UHD that deploys a proprietary HDR technology.
As for the other H improvements, more content, lower prices and flatter sets, I know they're coming and now you know they're coming (for the technically curious, here's a great round-up of all the pending UHD improvements).
So why not just wait till your UHD is as future-proof, flat and affordable as possible? I know I will
Wel of niet UHD is voor mij in dit topic geen deel vd discussie overigens.
Ik lees toch hier en daar dat HDR een behoorlijk zichtbare impact gaat hebben op het beeld. Misschien wel meer zelfs dan het verschil tussen FHD en UHD.
Dan toch maar kiezen voor een toestel dat wel HDR aankan?
