Uniform camera speed
Hello everybody,
I think I get into a common problem but I can’t find a quick way to get through it. Maybe there isn’t but i’m sure there is!
Here’s my problem: i have multiple photographs in a 3D space and i would like to slide with the camera from left to right but also go near and far to photos with uniform speed.
What i get is pretty ugly accelerations and decelerations.
Anyone has suggestions? Thank you very much!Francesco Capone

Try checking the Help for “roving keyframes”. It might do the trick.

Click on my head at the top of the forum for a tutorial on Roving Keyframes. It’s in that list somewhere…

It might also help if you make sure your keyframes are all linear instead of bezier (any sort of ease applied).
Right click on your keyframes and select keyframe interpretation. You can also set a preference for all spatial keyframes to be linear by default.
You may already be doing this, but what you describe seems like a good situation for parenting the camera to a null… This way you can dolly along the pictures by keyframing the null, and then truck in and out by keyframing the camera’s position. Then you have steady speed from the null and more flexibility with the camera.
