so is it possible to run with two spherical maps ..one for lighting and the other for the back drop??....because the lighting hdri doesnt look good as a backdrop.
i know i can use lock off stills as a background but this isnt very convinient if i want to rotate the camera...
cheers.;..

The spherical map would block the HDR light.
You can use a still (ie., plane with image) as background as you suggested. Simply parent it to your camera if you want it to move as you rotate the cam.
