High-Def Watch

Sound off with your picks! THE LIST, in alphabetical order, features the very best in 4K viewing from a physical disc. The criteria required the source to be mastered in 4K or higher and nothing less. No upconversion from 2K to 4K on this list. Continuing from last year, most of the top 4K discs were originally captured on 35mm film stock. When we post the final list, over 100 HDR screenshots will be included with mini-reviews of the Top 10 picks.
