This script automatically creates a camera that will orbit the selected objects. The distance of the camera is calcualated based on the size of the selected objects so that they will always fit the screen. This tool is great for creating demo reel renders of models and animations.
"Let's you output camera data (including transformation. fov. resolution and other camera specific data). It exports to an ascii file. with format comments in the file itself. Also attached in the zip is a script for maya that does the same thing (melscript written by Imre Lovasz) (basically. this set is good for exchanging animated camera between the two apps).

Changes an active perspective viewport into a camera viewport. It works with Brazil cameras - it'll also convert a camera view into a new camera view - and it'll let you put a safeframe automatically in when you run the script.
When running (and on is pressed) will output a sequence of rendered images of whatever was in your camera view at the current interval time. Useful for outputing a sequential set of images showing the progress of you building your scene. Minimize the script (don't close it) to let it run without cluttering your view.

This script allows you to control a single camera called 'cameraMain' by 'Target (ie: 2 point)' cameras and frame ranges. You specify any number of shots - the frame range for each shot - and which camera is used for each shot. cameraMain is then automatically updated during scrubbing - playback - rendering - previews - etc... so that it will take on the properties of the proper shot camera.
Manage camera/viewport.
- Dynamically builds a UI listing all target and free cameras.
- Allows camera selection, setting active viewport to any camera, cycling active viewport thru cameras, and dollying any camera.
"The purpose of this script is to facilitate the use of several cameras in a scene. For every part of the animation to be rendered - we associate a sequence - which is defined by a name - a time range - a camera - an index and a path to save the corresponding rendered frames.
