I accidentally set an object as camera, how do I undo this?

Question

I have a problem with rendering in cycles. In blender render my object is rendering fine, but in cycles when I pushed F12 I got only this:

One more thing: when I click 0 on keyboard I'm not in camera persp, but in object as camera, it looks like invisible layer, I don't know how to undo this, and be in camera persp again.

Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?

If you just switched from BI to Cycles you probably don't have materials defined for Cycles, you need to recreate the materials in Cycles nodes. — PGmath, Feb 07 '16 at 15:15

If you accidentally set an Object as Camera (CtrlNumpad 0 will do that)

You have two options to reset the camera back to the "active camera"

In properties windows/scene select your camera as "camera"

Or on the 3D layout select the camera and press CtrlNumpad 0 (or use the menu: View->Cameras->Select_Active_Object_as_Camera)

I have the same problem. But when I set camera as camera, blender automatically changes it to the same object. – Тимон Яблоков Apr 11 '22 at 19:07

Zoom out or select a camera from the outliner and press Ctrl Numpad 0.
