# FreeCam and CineCam

**Notes:**

* Both Freecam and Cinecam are currently only available to Desktop users and cannot be used in VR.
* They must be enabled by a worlds creator to be available.
* The cameras currently ignore collision.
* The mic is located at the avatar, not the camera's position.
* Other users' mics cannot be heard in freecam mode unless the avatar is within hearing range.

## FreeCam Aka F4cam

**Press F4 on the keyboard or (start) on Xbox Controller**

In freecam mode, Desktop users can detach their camera from their avatar and navigate through the virtual environment without being bound to the movements of the avatar itself. This can be especially handy for taking screenshots, recording videos, or simply exploring areas in a more flexible way.

## CineCam Aka F10Cam

**Press F10 on the Keyboard or (back) on Xbox Controller**

CineCam is similar to Freecam but has smoothed movements to assist in a smoother-looking video or stream when flying around.

## Controls

Both modes have the same control scheme.

**Keyboard:**

* **F4:** Toggle Free camera mode on or off.
