Obviously there was a change to the workflow which broke alot of things with the image quality, for me the FOV was too small, the distance made everything look too far away and the image quality took a nosedive.
But it's good to see you have switched back to a quality that for me isn't as bad as before and a step in the right direction before things were broken, for me the contrast looks over done again., but hard to tell at this point.
But the reason for this post is that at the same time of these changes SLR & VR Spy introduced new male talent instead of John Strong.
My query is do the directors use the same rig for John Strong as they do for the new guy and if these male actors are the same height ? ...for me John Strong seems to be quite compact in stature with distance from head to dick possibly shorter than the new guy.
I have never watched a scene with John Strong where i thought everything looked too far away, it's only with the new guy, could it just be down to the distance from lens to dick that is causing this issue and the rig is not adjusted for this small height difference ?
Sorry i'm just thinking out loud trying to work out what is going wrong and hopefully trigger something that may help.
Regarding overall image quality and just for reference, this is the scene that i first noticed some issues, where the dimensions / aspect ratio looked odd especially at the beginning of the scene:- https://old.sexlikereal.com/scenes/private-invitation-two-for-you-67752
I did actually query it on a post but got ignored
But then for a while everything was fine again until:-

This scene is the beginning of when eveything went tits up - Too be honest at first i was super impressed as the work at distance looked incredible, but as soon as the intimate action started i noticed how everything just looked to far away with different aspect ratios that didn't match. If i wanted to watch a performance of my favourite live band this camera would be perfect, unfortunately VR porn requires intimacy and this camera is totally wasted here.
After this scene it was ok again for a while, but the next scene broken was:-

After this scene, it just went downhill from there and i gave up watching
If it helps i could give a list of all the scenes that need re-rendering to help fix the issue - But fortunately for me they aren't performers that are top of my list, so no loss to me.
Maybe fix the Rose Carter scene on VR Spy official site !
