Hi, I?ve got a question about the movement of the camera:

How I can move a camera trought her local axis, always a move a camera if apply an increment in x, the camera always follow the way in line, but I want to watch to any point and move to this point (target of camera) when a push a key.

Thanks.

A sample:
This will follow your coordinates, and point to z+100 direction
x_camera x,y,z,x,y,z+100

Additionally, you can rotate around the center point with SIN and COS math.
