It’s time for another very handy addon. This time it’s all the camera tools you could ever want!
A Light but Very Useful Package
Whether you’re a screenshot-taking addict, a short video creator, a full-on machinima maker, or a role player, this one’s for you! MrGM made the WoW Camera Tools addon, which gives you a lot more control over, well, the camera. From the basic rotating, tilting and zooming, to speed sliders for automatically doing all of those for some smooth cinematic looks, hiding the player, orbiting, and more, there’s plenty to get from this light addon.
You can see the addon in action below and you can download it here.
