  • Click the Create camera from current view () button in the Camera tab on the left.
    Two black bars appear at the top and bottom, marking the limit of your camera's field of view.
  • Move around until the perspective matches what you have in mind.
  • When ready, it is a good idea to lock the camera's position through the button so you don't accidentally change it later on.
