Great work on the camera, that's refreshing. We're still flying around without useful tactical HUDs or an interpretation of the Overview, please say there's good news regarding this

I'm guessing this new camera is intended to complement increased grid sizes. I think it would have helped to highlight that justification, but not a single mention. It's awkward but intuitive enough that I felt myself getting accustomed to it after a few minutes. My only suggestion is returning "camera look" to a toggle (formerly C as the shortcut). I don't see the point of changing that behavior.

The zoom curve is good, I like that part. Saves a lot of scrolling. Perhaps a shortcut or a series of shortcuts to activate different camera states, like Z for zoomed-out-tactical, and M for zoomed-in-look-at-target. (Keys used as examples, I would personally custom map them to something random then put them under a Logitech macro key).
The point of having two such shortcuts would be switching very quickly between a tactical grid view at a custom distance and a dogfight / turret tracking view at a custom distance.

The track camera I would want and use is like this:
Target moving toward me http://i.imgur.com/Vi8RdrK.png
Away from me http://i.imgur.com/VsupcvK.png
Shows the target's speed and angular velocity, the bare essentials. Angular V because it is the stat that correlates to turret tracking.
Directional arrow because at that range you just can't tell where the other ship is going. Saves the player the back-and-forth between looking at target and back at their own ship.
Difference between target direction toward and away https://i.imgur.com/pS7jdgB.gif
In this tracking view I would want the camera locked off-center over the shoulder of my ship so I could keep it in view.
Tracking camera right now is useless because without your own ship in the frame, you lose the reference point.

If you're going to disconnect the camera from the player's ship, you need these indicators. http://i.imgur.com/8r472sp.png

If you would just play I think you would understand how disconnected the camera makes things. It's a very distinct feeling you get of, "wait, where the **** is my ship"

I have a key bound to Alt+1 to reset the camera on my ship. Does that help you
