Quote - I'm still a bit confused about IBL and HDR images. I went to the site and read the article and I'm still confused.  Which image type do we use in Daz? And we do set it up in Daz, not Reality, right? 

Wrong :) IBL needs to be setup in Reality. Studio's support for IBL is not as sophisticated. Basically you need to configure the Reality Light editor to use your IBL image. Select the image and select the mapping used by it. There are three possibilities and usually the latlong (panoram) format is best. That's all that you need. If you want to setup the BG in  certain way then you need to add the Reality IBL preview sphere to the scene and add a JPG version of the IBL map to the diffuse channel in the Surface tab. After that you can rotate the sphere along the Y axis to position it right. Call Reality and render.

Hope this helps.
