Same thing is happening in the digital camera world.

Megapixels don't matter any more. Every camera has way more than necessary. Kind of like having 40" 4k TVs. Who cares.

Low light (not applicable to TV) is still important.

But more recently dynamic range is where high end cameras are beginning to separate themselves from the pack. Newer cameras with a wider dynamic range will be able to produce high contrast pictures not possible before outside of stacking multiple images together.

The human eye still blows digital technology out of the water when it comes to dynamic range. There is a lot of room for improvement here.
