I'm still finding that the camera jumps out of position when panning/orbiting the scene.
Also finding i cant control the camera movement any more - I get close to where i want the camera and then its locks (so i can do LMB but i cant do any more RMB). Scene is in metres and is set around 0,0 so i dont know why im getting this strange camera lock. The only way i can manipulate the camera in this situation is by manually typing in numbers into the float dialogues (= very slow & counter-intuitive). I lost all my Beta 1 cameras so need to recreate them. It would be great if the sliders for the camera pos & target could be used as "sliders" - but this is not possible as they are too sensitive.

hi, we'll fix this in our next release.

you need to be aware that we are using a perspective camera.
you cannot zoom it infinitely. you need to zoom out and move your center of interest instead.
