Hi there,

I found out how I can get and set camera position and camera rotation. I use it now to store camera settings for several cameras in my machinima production. I haven't found a method yet how to read the zoom factor that you can set with CTRL-0 and CTRL-8.

Is it possible to read the current value in LSL?

If you do (*scripted* ) some camera positioning near and then camera movement towards an alpha face it may induce some zoom. Untested, but may be possible..
