Octane Camera Settings

The Octane Camera settings are stored in the DAZ Studio camera properties. To access these settings, select the DAZ Studio camera being used to render with from the DAZ Studio Cameras tab, and click on the OctaneRender subgroup.

Some of the Octane Thinlens camera pin settings are driven from the DAZ Studio camera (i.e., Frame Width and Focal Length), with the remaining pins driven from the OctaneRender subgroup in that camera.
