High Dynamic Range Streams to Amazon

Amazon Prime has announced that it is now offering episodes of its original series in high dynamic range. HDR is considered the next step after 4K images in improving video quality. High dynamic range on 4K sets offers improved color quality, better blacks and highlights, providing a more vivid, bright and lifelike image. The first series to be made available in HDR is the first season of Amazon’s "Mozart in the Jungle". The provider says that more series will be “coming soon.” Amazon is not charging Prime Members any extra for the HDR but users must have a TV capable of displaying the HDR images. Starting June 24, HDR is available through the Amazon Video app on Samsung SUHD TVs.
