What, exactly, will happen to the
camera vectors; direction, right and up
if one specifies both direction and
angle in a camera statement for a
perspective camera ?
I have read the camera section (6.4) in
the documentation, but I am not able to
find an answer there to this question.
(I think I understand what happens if
either an angle or a direction vector
is given, but I do not understand what
happens if both are given.)

Sorry, I don't know why I wrote camera
normals in the subject line, instead of
camera vectors.

The direction vector direction is used while the angle determines its
length.
