5 Reasons HDR Telly Is The Beautiful Future Of Home Cinema

1. It's Here, Now!

Want in? HDR is here now. Almost. So, you can buy HDR TVs from plenty of places €“ provided your wallet is prepared. Unfortunately, true HDR requires both the source material and display method to be equipped with the Highly Dynamic good stuff, and that's a bit of a stumbling block at the moment. Whilst HDR TVs are becoming two a penny, actual HDR content remains a little elusive. Until the kingpins of the TV world take a preference as to how they want to deliver 4K content €“ which is HDR's likeliest partner €“ widespread HDR programming looks set to remain a tad tricky to come by. The good news is that at least some HDR motion picture magic is set to arrive soon. Limited streaming of HDR content is set to take off shortly on both Amazon Instant Video and Netflix, whilst UHD discs, when they finally hit the mainstream, will have sufficient space to carry the extra data necessary to instruct HDR TVs as to how to handle the added colour info. Feeling HDR happy? Good.
