A quote from the article:

"Although the 4K master gets downconverted to 2K for Blu-ray and HD DVD,
Cookson and Price note that they still get better high-def detail if  
they
work down from 4K."

The first time this effect was demonstrated to me was in the 1990s at  
Efilm in Hollywood.  Which today made me wonder, how well has Efilm  
been recognized for its innovative engineering?

(I have no affiliation with Efilm financial or otherwise, and have  
just reviewed the interesting details of the company's post-2004  
provenance.)
