I find that when I'm trying to take a photograph in SL using 'camera angles' the arrows are SO sensitive that I either jump way up above what I'm trying to shoot on aim through the ground. Same for side to side. On the other hand, sometimes the arrows don't even make my view move. Is there a way I don't know of to center in on something to take a photograph?

Eos,
I personally use the mouse and ctrl, shift, alt keys for very exacting movements and centering. IM in game and I'll show ya. -Blue |

Blueman has the right idea.
Alt key and a left click held, will center your view and allow you to drag the mouse around to change your view. Ctrl will rotate and orbit your view if already using alt zoom. I use alt zoom constantly, not just for taking pictures. Its a great skill to have to simply get a better look at things. |

Then use combinations of the ALT/CTRL/SHIFT and arrow keys to change the camera angle. Check this page in the support wiki for more info. _____________________
