HDRIs are coming out sort of blurry, am I doing it wrong?

edited December 1969 in New Users

So i downloaded the hdri of Tropical Beach from hdrlabs. I put the hdr file, the larger of the two that come in the zip file in the environment map. I hit render and the beach is not sharp, its a bit blurry, not pixelated like its too small or anything. It just seems a tad blurry. Anyway to fix that? thanks!

    Select camera > camera settings > adjust focal length

    If you mean the 3k hdr in that set...then there isn't anything you can do. The 'Tropical Beach Env' is even more blurred and is meant just for lighting usage. The 3k hdr is meant for lighting/environmental reflections and not really use as a backdrop. The 8k jpg in that set IS crisp enough for background use.
