Export animation - newbie question

This is probably very basic, but it isn't obvious to me after going through all the tutorials...

I have a scene in C4D that has 3 cameras animated in the stage. I have imported successfully, and tweaked my materials (the original had a lot of special "metal" materials and the like). Everything looks good, OTHER than - will Octane animate all my cameras that are set up in the stage, or can I only animate one at a time?

Also, does it just default to a .PNG? I am OK with that, just asking because I didn't see an option to select "output format". Thanks in advance for any help.

(I just noticed after setting a small "trial render" across 2 cameras, that it did indeed read my stage camera animation properly) Thanks!

Hey there... some short answers:

-currently, there is only a single cam per obj supported. As octane overwrites the obj for every frame, your stage object should work fine.
-currently, png is our only output format. But hey, we`re still on beta. *cross fingers* for hdr or exr.
