A new study published in Nature by University of Cambridge researchers just dropped a pixelated bomb on the entire Ultra-HD market, but as anyone with myopia can tell you, if you take your glasses off, even SD still looks pretty good :)

agreed. I have a similar setup and our projectors are not even doing "true" 4k, it's pixel shifting. so the real thing would be even more noticeable.

    Pixel shifting is for when it upscales, isn't it? If you have a 4k source, you'll get a 4k picture from what I read about this series.

    That said, 1080p upscaled definitely still looks better compared to the old projector (though the newer one is also brighter, which also helps).
