    It seems to work. And it’s a lot easier, than I expected it to be, but I never came up with the idea of using the zoom.
    Thank you a lot Darby!

    Here is my, probably not very well written, expression.
    C = thisComp.activeCamera.toWorld([0,0,0]);
    P = thisComp.layer("3D layer").toWorld(anchorPoint);
    dis = length(C,P);

    CZ = thisComp.layer("_Camera04").cameraOption.zoom;

    S = thisComp.layer("3D layer").transform.scale[0];

    temp = S*CZ/dis;
    [temp,temp]

    and of course this one for the position
    l = thisComp.layer("3D layer");
    l.toComp(l.anchorPoint);

    Sure, I just don’t wanted to become to technical in my question.
    First they shouldn’t skew, I need them as flat as possible and they are a lot of layers ( since I need most of them only for about two frames ) which I would need to reposition and scale one by one. If I could get the absolute scale, out of this cam movement, I just needed to parent them to the null on their first frame.
    I’m really not sure if my post here made it only a tiny bit clearer, cause it would be already hard for me to tell it someone in german and my limited english knowledge does it’s job too.
    Maybe I should mentioned that I already tried it with 3D layers .

    I tried it again and found a solution. Maybe it’s usefull for someone else:

    I created a black solid and attached a slider to it. The value of the slider is keyframed from 10 (at the beginning) to 2 at the end.
    Then I created 11 keyframes on the transparency. Except of the 10th keyframe, which got the value of 100%, all the keyframes got 0% as value.

    Now I used this expression on the transparency.

    pausectrl = effect("Slider Control")("Slider");
    loopOut(type = "cycle", numKeyframes = pausectrl)

    I didn’t expected someone to answer during the christmas holidays, so thank you a lot for this. Unfortunately the script doesn’t work like expected.
    My javascript-knowledge is too bad to understand everything in this expression, otherwise I could try to adjust it.

    I expected something like a halfway simple solution, which is just a little bit to complicated for someone like me.
    Would it be easier if it don’t need to be exakt 10, 9, 8, 7 etc.? just a blinking, which gets faster and faster, without exakt numbers? or if a slider is involved?

    I’m really really sorry to bother you again, especially on the holidays.
    By the way merry christmas and again thank you a lot.
