### Remarks

Most of the time you will want to use [Camera.main](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/camera/main.md) instead. Use this function only when implementing one of the following events: [MonoBehaviour.OnRenderImage(RenderTexture, RenderTexture)](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/monobehaviour/onrenderimage.md), [MonoBehaviour.OnPreRender()](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/monobehaviour/onprerender.md), [MonoBehaviour.OnPostRender()](/engine/6000.7/script-reference/unityengine/monobehaviour/onpostrender.md).
