After Effects 2024 Camera Options Limited to Zoom Only

Hello everyone,

I'm having a persistent issue in After Effects 2024. When I create a new camera and go to the **Camera Options**, the only setting that shows up is **Zoom**. I’ve tried multiple solutions, including:

1. Ensuring that at least one layer is set to 3D.
2. Creating both 1-node and 2-node cameras.
3. Resetting the workspace and preferences.
4. Switching between GPU acceleration and Mercury Software Only.

Unfortunately, none of these steps seem to bring back the full set of camera options like **Depth of Field** and **Focus Distance**.

Has anyone else experienced this in the 2024 version? If so, any additional solutions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Best,
Daniel

Found the solution:  revert to the Classic 3D renderer for these controls, I was using advanced 3D.

Glad you found the answer. The Camera Options in the Properties Panel is context-sensitive to the renderer chosen and zoom is the only one available in Advanced 3D currently.
