08:20 < xray> Wish I had been online for the 4k TV discussion.
08:21 < xray> Before wasting money on a 4K TV look into the angular resolution of the human eye.
08:22 < xray> The bottom line is that a 4K TV is indistinguishable from an HD TV (1080P) from 6 ft away unless the 4K TV is huge (think well over 100 inches). I'll have to find the link to the article with all the math.
08:29 < K`Tetch_> http://referencehometheater.com/2013/commentary/4k-calculator/
08:32 < xray> That one will work
08:33 < K`Tetch_> in graph form http://i.i.cbsi.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2013/01/27/resolution_chart.jpg
08:33 < xray> Notice the the optimum viewing distance for 4K at a little over 6 feet is 100 inches diagonal
08:34 < xray> So 4K is great at the theater but your wasting your money with 4K at home
08:34 < K`Tetch_> well, thata 100inch 4k you wouldn't see any more detail at 6ft
08:34 < xray> correct
08:34 < xray> so how close do you sit
08:34 < K`Tetch_> I have a 55inch 1080 (wife's uncle gave it to us as a christmas pressent 2 years ago)
08:35 < K`Tetch_> closest chair is 7ft, furthest is about 13ft
08:36 < xray> The last TV I bought I sized to the room and where we sit
08:36 < xray> using a similar chart
08:37 < K`Tetch_> i remember him telling me abbout 13-14 year ago that 20" was the optimum for a old tube tv,
08:39 < K`Tetch_> if I start doing a lot of 4k video editing though, I may need to get a 4k display
08:41 < xray> I haven't looked at what size a 4K monitor should be to be useful at the distance I use them
08:41 < xray> There is also the problem of text being at the limit of our resolution on a 4K monitor.
08:42 < xray> Even though the text is clear it will give you eye strain trying to read it.
08:42 < K`Tetch_> this was just posted in the videography group http://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-ultrasharp-32-8k-monitor-up3218k/apd/210-alez/monitors-monitor-accessories?dgc=BA&cid=308301&lid=5829896&acd=123092303582786738c101442632&ven3=112703612582488970

08:43 < xray> I use a 1080P 27" display from 2.5 feet and it looks good.
08:43 < xray> and doesn't give me eye strain.
08:43 < xray> With my glasses on I have 20/10
08:43 < K`Tetch_> I have a couple of 20"ers on this one, about 2.5 ft too
08:47 < K`Tetch_> also, finally found a way to get my caon camera to record at 35mbit without complaint
08:48 < xray> excellent
08:48 < xray> going afk
08:48 < K`Tetch_> found a UHS-3 class SD card (not micro) at microcenter last week for $26
08:48 < K`Tetch_> 50MB/wrie, 80Mb/read speed
08:49 < xray> that is good. How big?
08:49 < K`Tetch_> 64gb
08:50 < K`Tetch_> was on the clearance rack at the back corner of the delk store

13:10 <@Evilpig> that is a nice price.  I need to pick one up myself for the switch but i've been looking at the 128 and 256gb ones
