Basinc Command of a Camera Script

To create the camera:
_cam = "camera" camCreate [0,0,0]
_cam cameraEffect ["internal","back"]

To set a target
_cam setTarget targetName

To Change position of camera relative to target
_cam camSetRelPos [x,y,z]

note: change x y z to whichever

Change zoom
_cam camSetFOV 1.0

note: the lower the number the more zoomed in the camera is. decimals allowed.

Set changes over the stated number of seconds.
_cam camCommit 0

to wait a period of time
~5

note: change number to whatever

to delete a camera
_cam cameraEffect ["terminate","back"]
camDestroy _cam


Play around with these to see their effects. You'll get hand off it soon enough.
