Please add support for isometric camera, we’ve ran into this previously, but recently we got sign off on a project rendered in Octane but the client needed it isometric to fit alongside some other visuals, we were unable to do it and had to basically hack it in photoshop.

If they ask for animation then we will be screwed...

Please add support for isometric camera :/

Hey bepeg4d,

What do you mean? Are you suggesting that isometric camera does work with Octane?

If you pick your camera in C4D you can set it to ‘isometric’ instead of ‘perspective’ , this however doesn’t work in the Octane viewport..

I’m not sure what file you want me to provide unless I’m missing something?

Hi,
please, thy these steps, create an octane camera, enable the Orthographic option, then rotate it at 45°, -30°, 0°, and use the Focal distance to zoom in and out:

Due to the connection of the focusing distance and the zoom, problems arise with the adjustment of the depth of field
