Yes this is a re-post - I realized it's crickets over in the $20K forum compared to here - I'll delete that post.
I ask because I was/am getting close to pulling the trigger on a Sony 4K machine - then I realized once at 5 figures you might as well consider a used 3 chip DLP.
So my question is - will any of the Sim2 machines for example (Lumis, Super Lumis, HT5000E, C3X 1080P) be able to take advantage of any of UHD Blu Ray's added picture quality (even if they may need an external video processor to retain the color space and higher bit depth color while downconverting the resolution)?
If I could display DCI P3 and 10 bit color as well as get really high lumens I could probably live with 1080P native resolution on my projector for the next five years.
I realize they don't have HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0 - but I'm not technical enough to understand whether that means that NONE of the added information in UHD Blu Ray can be displayed by current projectors - or whether it just means we have to down-rez the content, but still get to retain the added color space and bit depth.
