Ciaoooo byeeeee

1) Enable the advanced menu with Ctrl-OPt-d You can then turn the UI on and off with Ctrl-Opt-F1

2) I know of no way to slow down the speed of the keys except using a script and I don't do that. Here is a link http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Machinima that has tools you might consider, they are listed under "equipment."

2a) I use "zoomtime" in debug settings. Try playing with the Zoomtime setting it at 10, 20, 35, and 50. By using "Opt," "Ctrl+Opt," and "Ctrl+Shift+Opt" and left clicking you can slow zoom, rotate, and pan your view. You can find debug settings toward the bottom of the advanced menu. You must reset the zoomtime to default before logging out, otherwise the slowed cam will carry over to the next log in.

I'm sorry but I do not have a Mac. Few of the active people on this forum do. The link I pasted at #3 may give you links to other Mac users.
