public CameraType cameraType;

Description

Identifies what kind of camera this is, using the CameraType enum.

Regular cameras in your scene have a value of CameraType.Game, both at runtime and in the Unity Editor. Cameras that render different parts of the Unity Editor have other values; for example, cameras that render the Scene view have a value of CameraType.SceneView.

This is useful in the Scriptable Render Pipeline, where you can define different rendering behavior for Unity Editor cameras as well as cameras in your scene.
