How to solve the problem of camera Depth of Field not being active and the camera option only has the "zoom" option in After Effects, thank you

 

Correct answer Rick Gerard

Check the 3D Renderer Tab in Composition Settings (Ctrl/Cmnd + k). Motion Blur and Depth of Field are disabled when using Advanced 3D and the C4D rendering engines. If you need those features, you'll have to switch to Classic 3D.
