How do I get more (or less) of the HDRi environment map into the scene?
Thanks!

    Change Dome Mode to Finite Sphere and change Dome Radius.

    Changing the dome radius can lead to distortion of the image, so I would use that in conjunction with the field of view of your camera. A wider angle (smaller values) will result in more of the background being shown, whereas a narrower angle (higher values) will zoom the camera, resulting in less of the background being shown. I typically stick with a 50-70mm lens for full-body to half-body portraits. Landscapes you can shoot for 35 - 50mm. I apologize, I'm not sure how those values translate to the built-in Daz camera. I use these to give me real-world lens numbers - https://www.daz3d.com/ig-photographers-toolbox-35mm-cameras

    Excellent feedback both, thank you. I missed that there was a dome radius! (Soooo many settings, LOL)
