Does anyone have good photos or videos they recommend using to show off the new retina iMac display? thanks
 
I think to get a true sense of it you're going to have to go see it in person at an Apple store or Best Buy.
 
Agreed. Close pictures can somewhat show you the difference in what 4x the pixels look like, but the only way to truly appreciate it is to use it in person.

I believe what he is looking for is photos and/or videos that he can use on his retina iMac to show off its capabilities to others...
 
I'm looking for the same thing. Want a 4K video clip about 1.5 minutes to 2 minutes in length.

Stick a question mark at the end of your post title if you are asking for something rather than making something available.

It's irritating to open another misleading thread.
 
Here is a great site with a few 4k-Movie Trailers, e.g. Interstellar Trailers:

And here is a great Youtube Channel with 4k Videos:

They've even uploaded a 5k Video but YouTube doesn't support this yet.

These are my favourite 4k Videos from this channel:

It's funny how the discussion about retna iMac changed. Before, everyone said it was unnecessary due to viewing distance and too resource intensive to technically make sense because of display size. :)

Well, here we are...

Seems like that happens quite frequently, doesn't it? :)
