Quote:If I were interviewing a politician the last thing I would care is that he/she looks great in 4K.The norm after editing. Not during videoing/filming.
But seriously though, I dabbled a bit in shooting video a couple of years back and found that on average "a take" was no more than 5 or 6 seconds. I studied a lot films and found that 4 seconds seems to be the norm.
I don't think anyone in their right mind is going to use a DSLR to record an interview. You could probably get a 4k video recorder for 500€ that fits in your coat pocket.
As a side note, I have a 130cm TV and find that HD broadcast (1900-ish pixels) looks great already. Not only that, there is no 4K broadcast where I live, so I really think that 4K today is not a big deal.
