hello
When I use HDRI material for the sky of Arnold Rendering, everything still looks blurry during rendering, it still doesn't show a real image. How can this problem be solved?

[@Uhr24]

this is a question for the maya forum about rendering. search for autodesk maya AREA. good luck!

This is well made. Thank you.

I was playing around with equirectangular pictures on spheres and was wondering about 2 things: can I use a video input/or imagesequence and would I do that in the texture? and do you think there is a way I can use a arnold skydome light to illuminate objects within the imagesphere? :)

[@Uhr24]

i think the skydome light keeps the inside of the sphere black. i‘m using a point light, placed in the centre of the sphere, exactly where the camera sits. #imagesequence: czcams.com/video/sjTxbFK2dT8/video.html

Thanks! What kit did you use to take the initial photo?

[@Uhr24]

that‘s not really relevant here, since it‘s a 360° photo like thousand others. in my case it was a tiny drone with a panorama option in the app. important are the permissions to fly that high.
