Can you use CameraOffset to offset the camera at an angle?

I am awear that CameraOffset uses vector3, therefore if you can rotate a vector3 value. Then you can Offset at an angle. However I am unsure if this is possible. Any ideas or responses?

This property is for offsetting the the CameraSubject's location - Vector3 types do not contain rotation information, if you desire to offset the Camera's location you will have to edit it's CFrame property on the client!

1local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
2local offset = CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(10),0)
3 
4cam.CameraType = "Scriptable"
5 
6wait()
7 
8cam.CFrame = cam.CFrame * offset;

- Note that the Camera's `CameraType` must be set to `Enum.CameraType.Scriptable` prior to manipulating it through code.

- Also note that you must set the `CameraType` back to `Enum.CameraType.Custom` for it to respond to user-input again.
