I absolutely do not like the new camera.
It seems that the people who came up with this new camera has never played EVE, did not participate in PvP or PvE battles or never undock from Jita IV - Moon 4 - Caldari Navy Assembly Plant.
new camera cons:
- no automatic tracking camera what makes battles and d-scanning painful
- very often the ship flies off the screen or hidden behind the channels / scanner / overview windows
- ships and other objects appear more blurry when zooming
- stars and other far objects have motion blur when the camera is rotated and i hate motion blur
new camera pros:
- we can make an epic screenshot, where the planet looks like an egg or a football

That was sarcasm. In fact I do not see any pros to use this new camera and i'm not willing to struggle with it.
Sometimes old code is much better than new one.

Another downside of the new camera
- with the new camera we can not set custom position for tracking objects
Every pilot create own windows arrangement and sometimes we need to offset camera AND MOVE tracking position from the center to ensure constant visibility of tracking object.
Ideally, I need ability to set camera offset for both axes (X, Y) and i want to choose between center and custom tracking position.
And if I have already started talking about offsets. Pls make an option in game menu to apply camera offset only for ship in space. I don't need camera offset for fullscreen maps.

Today after update i again tried a new camera. My eyes allow me only 10 minutes of testing.
1. As in the previous test, zoom is totally unresponsive. and and also often zoom level continues to reset without cause.
2. Because of your stupid decision to move pivot point somewhere in space my ship continues to hide behind the channels of scanners windows. No frequently as before, but it's still very annoying.
3. Still stars have motion blur when the camera rotates or shakes. My eyes can not withstand such tortures. I can set camera speed to 4x and this removes blur but camera speed is too fast for a comfortable flight.
4. Still no custom tracking position.
So i again turn off this new crappy camera

OLD CAMERA MUCH BETTER FOR FLYING AND COMBAT
[/capslock]
I'll just quote my old message when CCP tried to improve old camera movement and now they are jumping on the same rake.
Quote:Every time I see a record about improving the tracking camera I want to hit the developers with something heavy.
I don't understand why CCP made this freaking flying camera for simple rotation by three points.
We have 3 point:
1st point our ship (center of rotation), 2nd point current tracking position and 3rd point new tracking position. This creates a simple 3d angle and all we need is to rotate camera relative to our ship on that 3d angle as fast as posible without camera pirouette and aerobatic maneuvers.
That's how rotating the camera works in desing and CAD softwares and you don't need to invent the wheel
Truly it is very annoying, when the simple angle something about 15-¦ and easiest way to move camera is move in a straight line, but instead, the camera starts to perform a inside loop with the speed of a turtle in absolutely wrong direction.

Will test again tomorrow.
I hope you come up with how to remove stars motion blur

Quote:Have you tried turning off the dynamic FOV setting in the graphics tab? I found that once I unchecked it my problems with the new camera seemed to have subsided in regards to motion sickness.
yes, i tried to turn off dynamic fov and bobbing and shaking but for my eyes it does not help

Quote:You mean that the stars in the background become blurry? Could you maybe try toggling all the camera settings, or changing the Graphic Content Settings (right side of the Esc menu), and seeing if any of those can reduce this effect?
Exactly
I think old camera have some blur on stars too, but I almost do not notice it. With the new camera eyes begin to tire very quickly.
In my case, only increasing the speed of camera to very high helps to reduce blur effect. But with such high camera speed I just can not rotate the camera. Graphics settings set to max and reducing setting do nothing with blur except lowering graphic quality.
I am updating my client and continue testing

Ok. after update i turned off only one option: Dynamic Center Offset and this helped.
Zoom is now more responsive and I did not notice a blur of stars. But without custom tracking position I see no reason to use a new camera. Without dynamic center offset new camera like the old one with centered tracking position and nothing more.
Because of my windows arrangement I need to make my ship flew like in the screenshot.
My ship is fixed point of rotation and sun is custom tracking position

for now with new camera this is impossible

- Camera with Dynamic Center Offset On and Off has a different zoom sensitivity. When Dynamic Center Offset option is enabled zoom speed is ultra fast. For a few notches on the wheel my ship turn into small marker.
- X, Y axis for camera rotation has different sensitivity. Many times people have written about it. And nothing fixed.
- Unnecessary intermediate camera centering before starting rotation not removed.
- Where is my Custom tracking position for camera without Dynamic Center Offset??????????
You can't fix simple thing and add simple features in your super-duper new cam but can disable old cam, which works much better than new.
just copy-paste from another topic
Lauda about CCP New camera:
It's a sh.tbox! It zooms like crazy and centering before rotation is a disaster. It's amazing - all these dev teams, and you make a piece of crap like this.

What updates planned for the camera with June 28 update?
Maybe you will add Custom tracking position or fix ultra fast zoom?
What will CCP do?
