I saw this post up on G+, and decided that Hacker News was really a better place to ask this kind of question.

What with a 12MP camera really being 4,000 by 3,000 and a 4K screen displaying 4,000 by 2,000 - I had never considered how fast display technology was advancing.

So - what would be the best options for someone to go with? Should they just go WAY out there and get an ultra high MP camera, or stick to something just slightly ahead of the current displays?
