Ultimately, higher rez video cameras will produce moving images far greater than the capacity of HD broadcast to deliver. One might ask, "why bother and not just settle for 1920 X 1080?"
Why? Computer based video, for one thing. Viewsonic and a couple other manufacturers have 23" monitors displaying the new 3840 X 2400 pixel standard. Resolution specs will probably go way higher than that. Graphics card makers are doubling and quadrupling the performance of their adapters every year, which would lead to demand for high rez motion video for gaming and other forms of entertainment. New advancements like OLED displays may make for giant, wall sized TV screens one can simply roll up out of the way.
If the telcos can get out of their financial slump they might propel forward new, much higher bandwidth network connections.
Overall, I think over-the-air broadcast is ultimately doomed. Newer video storage, playback and transmission formats will see to that.
But you need very high rez video cameras to capture the footage (unless of course you simply want to get as good/better of a result by using film).
