as an experiment, reduce the focal length of the camera to under 35 mm, which is beginning to be a fish-eye lens. The background image will come into focus better, but you get the usual distortion.

That image is Piazza San Marco and the photographer is hundreds of feet from the walls of the buildings. If you were standing there with a megapixel digital camera, you could get clear resolution of the walls; but a small section of the 360 view and in a fairly large RAW file.

In or to resolve detail that far away, in a 360 shot, the size of the file would have to be over 100 MB probably. Therefore, when you resolve it with a smaller file it is fuzzy.
