How to make the camera move and rotate with the object? So that the camera is literally glued to the object. I tried to do it by positioning the camera in each frame, but unfortunately it doesn't work (the camera shakes). I also tried "parent on object" and unfortunately it doesn't work at all. How to make the camera move with the object?
Of course, I mean animations

    Parenting the camera to the object should work.

    Can you explain what you experience if you do that?

    Check this thread - https://forum.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/647496/how-to-make-the-camera-follow-the-figure

    I attached two example scenes with two types of Cameras in the above thread, one is Dolly, another is Dolly Rotate, set with Linear interpolation so as to make them move smoothly. Pls see if that is what you want...

    Problem solved -  parent on the object works. I was stupid,  took  camera from the scene and placed it on the object and I thought it would work.

    Well, that sounds like the correct method - as long as parent In place was on. The potential issue is unwanted up-and-down or rotation movement, if the camera is parented to a bone in a figure.
