Fog disappears when camera is in sss obj

Hi

Sorry for this beginner question.
I saw some great examples of fog renders using an sss object.

The moment the camera is inside the fog object the effect disappears. I tried with normals facing inwards but also this doesn't help. Is there something I've overlooked?

You need to put a cam in sphere with inverted normals =) & then these two should be in a box of sss.

cheers

Hi Glimpse, Thanks.

Is there a way to link the position of an object to a camera or vice verca?
It seems as if that a placement node is only operating on geometry and that you don't have a camera object node? Or is this something one has to do manually?
