Brilliant, I'm looking forward to more camera stuff. I have a really hard time setting cameras up for indoor scenes, it always feels like I have no room

What if you don't have a numeric keypad on your keyboard?

i literally spent hours trying to get the perfect angle for the camera in my blender project but it was always like a pixel off so i had to reposition it and it was very frustrating and annoying to do but when i stumbled upon this video, it fixed all my problems related to camera positioning. thank you so so so much, the cg essentials!

Is there a way to do this without a numpad?

[Geospasmic]

Thank you!! I was going crazy trying to set it up.

[TGMisKillingTheMiddleClass]

alt+ctrl+0 did not snap it to that view for me, it made my model disappear and the camera has not changed.

you are clearly leaving something out

Moving the camera was a nightmare, thank you very much.... When I press Ctrl + Alt + 0 the camera moves so far but the render is exactly the view I want. 🙌

[gaston.]

thanks... these quick go to references are very helpful.

[Puckerization]

Good tip, thanks. I've often wondered why the Blender devs don't have a right-click option on the viewport camera icon, or a double-click on the camera icon for camera-to-view.
