4K sales
unnonimus:
most agencies will take the 4k and offer the buyer HD from the 4k for a lower price.
4k is the future, but keep these facts in mind.
once you go over 50mb/s, you are producing video that is of higher quality than almost all forms of use. you will be higher bitrate than DVD, blu ray, satellite tv, cable tv, youtube, etc. so 50mb right now covers you for all uses.
a lot of TV is still SD. however HD is common on laptops, HD still is not universally adopted, even 20 years after introduction.
in the past 20 years, computer displays for most consumers have been near HD or HD. very few people use 4k on their computers. low end computers have problems playing back 4k.
if you film 4k, your videos might still be usable even 20, 30, or 40 or more years from now. filming in 4k is a good idea.
StockGuy101:
4K clips also give the buyer more flexibility in an HD edit to re-position or crop the shot without loss in quality.
I think if more buyers would realize that, we'd sell more 4K clips.

Just had my second ever 4K sale there a couple of days ago.
