I don't know about that.  TV couldn't reproduce the whole range of  
colors a tetrachromat sees, but that doesn't mean it would look  
wrong.  An extreme example of this is black-and-white TV -- it can't  
reproduce any color but it doesn't look incorrect, just restricted.   
Another example would be two-color printing, which produces images  
that have a restricted color space but that our brains still interpret  
as reasonably natural.

I brought up TV, so I think this counts as on-topic. ;)
