What I Found
Apple Vision Pro passthrough can look blurry, hazy, or soft at certain distances and lighting levels.
If you put on Apple Vision Pro and the passthrough video looks a little blurry, hazy, smudged, or almost like frosted glass, the first question is obvious: is something wrong with the headset, or is this just how it works?
The short answer is that for most people, the Apple Vision Pro is probably not broken. The softness, blur, haze, and motion-blur-like look in passthrough appear to be intentional side effects of the current camera-based technology, lighting conditions, distance from objects, and processing limits.
