I'm mostly interested in doing some HDR skydomes (since I enjoy capturing them as well). I have no idea how to use them as the exclusive lighting with mental ray? Anyone know how to do this? I tried using mr Physical Sky and adding the HDR to the background map but it doesn't seem to be actually lighting the scene...
