What I'd like to know is whether seeing it at 4K in 2D at 48fps will give a more detailed picture than seeing it at 2K in 3D at 48fps. If so, which is better? Presumably, even to see it at 2K in 3D, you'd have to go to a 4K cinema, otherwise you'd be seeing it at 1K in 3D, or 2K in 2D?! I don't think they're planning to distribute 2D/48fps as an option, although maybe I'm mistaken. My impression has been that the 48fps is coming as a package with 3D. Note that just about any projector capable of showing RealD 3D (whether 2K or 4K) can already show the film at 48fps. RealD is naturally 48fps, but when showing 3D, it alternates the frames for the right and left eyes, resulting in 24fps, overall. When in 2D mode, without the ZScreen filter, they can show films at 48fps without upgrade. The upgrade is needed to show 3D at 48fps. To answer your question: Yes, 4K in any combination will give a more detailed picture than 2K in any combination. (But again, I don't think you'll be seeing the 48fps on any but 4K projectors.)
Man is but an ass if he go about to expound this dream.
