Get a new perspective on SL, literally!
SL's default camera sits high in the air above your avatar, several metres in fact! This removes you, the SL user, from the immersion you would get if your camera was closer to your avatar's eye level. This also causes a lot of problems for builders, as the camera sitting so high up makes ceilings under 3-4metres a problem. This, in turn, contributes to people building huge double or triple scale buildings, and makes SL appear a lot smaller than it actually is.
This HUDis intended as a quick way to preview my improved camera settings. If you like the new view, you can then follow the instructions over on my blog and change the camera settings right in the viewer itself, no HUD necessary!

If you enjoy the new camera placement and agree this would benefit SL greatly, be sure to head over to the SL Jira and vote for it!

Should be the SL default view
This is how the view should be in the first place. Another bit of common sense that is sorely lacking in SL / SL viewers.
Love it
Makes moving around so much more fun, works like a charm on Firestorm 5.0.11, no clue what the other person was talking about.
Great item.
I'm currently running into a SL glitch where my camera, when zoomed in, starts to point up at the ceiling. I have tried to figure out why it's doing this all of a sudden.. no avail. -- I GOT THIS HUD to hopefully fix this bug.. AND IT WORKS! I get my camera working as it should again.. at least until I can locate this bug and squish it.
Doesn't work anymore...
I keep receiving this error message:
[05:10] Camera Control HUD - Full Perm Freebie V1.01 [script:Camera Script - Full Perm] Script run-time error
[05:10] Too Many Listens
I would have given 5 stars but right now I don't feel the same. can it be updated? I hope so.
Indispensible
Absolutely brilliant. This simple tool has transformed my SL experience, making it much more immersive and realistic. Excellent work, can't recommend this highly enough.
