there's also the whole thing where a compound eye enables the capture of a full light field, e.g. like the Lytro camera which uses a "plenoptic" system to capture image data that can be re-focused or used to create 3D images after being taken.

Which rather implies that a bee has a full 360 degree constant 3D model of its environment, but without the heavy memory and processing requirements needed in human vision to get that.
