By the way, based on the compatibility list of TVs with Dolby Vision via the Xbox One X, it looks like the console is using the new low latency profile. Some Dolby Vision TVs, like the 2016 LG OLEDs, are not yet compatible. Meanwhile, the Sony TVs are.

Short version, a little background on the Peter Barten model, see 2nd heading “Human Vision and the DICOM GSDF” - https://siim.org/page/displays_chapter3

4K HDR can't be fully appreciated on a 55"

U might wanna consider a 2018Vizio P series if you are in North America. It's better than the NU8000. Better color and vibrancy and better black levels too. The hdr is "better" on the Vizio P (2018 version, not 2017).

Something workflow unique –
A feature shot with RED Helium 8K camera, mastered and delivered to YouTube in 8K resolution -

I wished they’d also offered a 4K HDR version and done a 4K HDR v. 8K SDR side-by-side comparison (with enough separation to avoid crispening and Cornsweet effects) to show which has more visual value.

tommyboy81 · 09-02-2018, 12:14 AM

so question. There's a certain someone on Youtube. I won't say that persons name but he's been doing SDR vs HDR videos lately. His claim is that SDR is better, and that HDR washes out colors (greenish tint on skin), etc...

Does he have his settings off? He purposely doing it?

Geoff D · 09-02-2018, 01:03 AM

Whatever way he's doing it, he's doing it wrong.
