How to Use the Camera in Blender (Tutorial)

[@stanangles_games]

I spent ages looking and watching Videos of People Clicking it and Moving it not saying Anything. You have just saved me! Thank you So Much 💖💖

[@RyanKingArt]

glad it helped!

[@ninja_tony]

Ryan, I just want to tell you, every single one of your videos teaches me a mountain of things. I always learn something new from you, and I almost didn't even click this particular video because I thought, "I already know how to use the camera, this video's going to be more geared toward beginners." I'm glad I didn't listen to myself, because as usual, I walked away from this video with quite a few tips I had no clue about before. You're awesome man, I watch a TON of Blender channels and modeling channels in general, and you're easily one of the best teachers in the whole community.

[@RyanKingArt]

Wow, thank you very much! I'm glad my videos are helpful!

[@peterh8253]

I'll second your comment. What I like about Ryan's tutorials is that not only are they very informative, but he has an excellent delivery style. He speaks slowly enough that you have time to take in what he's saying, but not so slowly that you'd fall asleep. He also doesn't distract you with off-topic banter like some other tutorials I've watched. There's a fine line between being entertaining and being annoying. Default Cube and Ian Hubert manage to pull it off, but a lot of other tutorial creators should leave the jokes alone.

[@RyanKingArt]

@@RyanKingArt at 3:30 when i press G nothing happens, do you know why??

[@RyanKingArt]

@@Agent_Coquelicot Make sure the camera is selected before you press G to move it.

Thank you! You are a great teacher (telling this 120% honest because I also have experience in teaching people)! Really appreciate your work - every time your tutorials are covering I was looking for. Thanks a million!

[@andrewdeacon4384]

Very comprehensive and well explained - thanks Ryan.

[@rw8785]

Can't believe that this basic camera movement (especially double-tapping z to move in/out) is not mentioned by any tutorials elsewhere. Knew there was some way to do this! tks!

[@supersharpgamer]

For fly mode, the default binding is impossible to press on the Nordic keyboard layout. And for other layouts that differ enough from the US layout to make it impossible or inconvenient to use, just rebind it to the same keys where it would be on the US keyboard, and it should work. There shouldn't be anything bound to that combination by default. After I did this, placing the camera became so much easier and more pleasant.

[@xDaShaanx]

This tutorial is excellent but it is missing one point which annoys a lot of new users in 3d. That is Camera shift. Especially when you rotate camera to get some funky angle it distorts the vertical lines of object. I do product renders and I struggled a lot with this at the start of my journey. For any one wondering can check out "Blender Tip - Camera Shift for Architecture Renders" by CG Masters. It will help you a lot in product or architecture renders.

wih the shift tilde fly mode you can press TAB and it drops you in the enviroment so if you are making an enviroment for an FPS game or TPS game, this is very useful to see sizes and ratios of places before taking it to a game engine

Yes, that's a very cool feature of the camera!
