Camera's question for Daz

I'm using Daz studio, and I have a few different kinds of cameras, one's a fog camera, one creates god rays etc. Not all features are in one camera so I have to use a few. Is there a way to have one camera take up the exact same position as another camera with out manually trying to line the two up?
Thank you.

    select your camera Edit>Copy>Copy Selected Item then select the new camera and the Edit>Paste>Paste to Selected Item.
    If its a DS default camera if you have the Camera you want replicated selected when you load a new camera you get a pop up box giving you some options one is to copy the selected Camera

    Windows and Mac keyboard shortcuts for copy and paste work inside DAZ Studio so you can copy and paste in the scene tab the same you would in your OS.

    All matching camera settings will be copied from the first to the second.

    Thank you so much! So obvious now. So while we're on the subject of copying and pasting is there a way to copy an object and paste it as a copy back into the environment ( or even into a second Daz screen ) without using the duplicate command or saving it as a single object and then merging it into the scene?

    With the item you want selected, open the Create dropdown menu and choose “create new node instance”. If you want more than one, choose “create new node instances” (plural), and a dialogue will open prompting for the number of instances you want.
