Summary

In addition to the Cinemachine add-on, Unity offers a few stock camera options: orthographic cameras, great for retro games; perspective cameras, the classic 3D game and walkthrough standby; and physical cameras that work like film cameras, great for matching live-action footage as well as giving your project a cinematic feel, whether indie or big-budget blockbuster.
In this tutorial, we’ll explore these, creating one of each Camera type for a specified purpose.
