Camera controls Not just for snooping anymore!

I like my camera controls, when I first started SL and someone said use your camera controls I thought why the heck? I’m not going to take any pictures I will never need that. Ok, I was so wrong on both counts, I am a picture freak and a Camera Control guru.
There are two ways to access your Camera Controls one is to use your Alt Key and use your left mouse button and swirl around. That does a Zoom in or out and if you continue to hold you mouse button and click the Crtl button the you get the orbit views ( I don’t mean you get orbited, you just float around objects).




The second way is to Click your main menu bar at the top of the screen under View and then Scroll down and Camera Controls. If you do that you get a handy box. The right wheel moves your site of view left or right and up and down. The Left wheel umm swirls you around (for the lack of a better word) Left and right and up and down. These are super Handy as you build or other things……there is a zoom in as well.






I’m hyper and get bored very quickly and distracted fast…..”Oh a hot-tie at 9 o’clock!” How to see this cutie up close?….Ok this is border line stalking but you can use this for other things.






Open up those View controls and Swirl and slide over to your “target”




and see what develops… orrr not :D






You can use this for locked buildings you “Just have to” see in……




Or great Photo Ops with the love of your life :D






So if you see me in Help Island Public just standing around… I’m prolly using my Camera Controls checking things out…..Give me a wave :D
