At the moment both cinema and TV are producing high quality content at 2k. And yet most are watching in formats that good quality DVD SD would be fine.

Other much more important factors regarding picture quality are ignored as this does not involve selling and requires learning.

Diffuse or focused light, subject and lighting contrast, good exposure, no flare or light scatter, lenses, f stop, focus, DOF ....

A good film crew will producer far better quality on 2k than an amateur with a 4k.

Producer higher quality images at no extra expense - read books.
I'm pretty sure there are some professionals in our industry, pretty insulting to say their isn't honestly. Have you looked at some of the 4k vids out there? My eyes notice the difference, i'm sure i'm not the only one.. If you recall HD sold FAR before its capabilities were utilized both with capturing and with file sizes, how is this different?
