Hey.

I was trying to add two types of camera i.e Orbit and Follow Path. But I wasn’t able to do that.  
Is there any way to do it?

There is only one camera per view. What are you trying to do exactly ?

I have a 3D box which is a representation of some data. Now I want to create an animation such that it has a rotating and a zooming effect.

Even though the control are not very practical in the GUI, it is possible to position the camera anywhere you want during the animation, especially if you are using python.
