Note that the "camera" feature is currently being addressed and looks
like it will have syntax changes in 3.5 beta 11. In particular the
existing camera keywords may be required to appear in a specific order.
If you use a camera in your 3.5 beta 10 scene you run a risk that your
scene may not run under beta 11.

3.5 beta 10 expires before the contest deadline.
