I don't like staring at a ships engines

Zoom out so that everyone can see what is going on, or better still give the camera to the guy who filmed the event last year

CCP want to highlight the details on their epic ship graphics, they do the same **** on all promo videos, and it always looks equally bad from a gameplay perspective. It's not a 3d display show for game model students, noone cares. ZOOM OUT

I feel the commentators have definitely got to improve their use of the camera. While it is nice to see EVE's amazing graphics and particle effects, it is very hard to get an overview of the battle while zoomed in on an ishkur. The small window in the lower right is simply not enough to show the battlefield.

Perhaps simple things like starting centered on the beacon but zoomed all the way out to show where the teams have warped in at, followed by centering upon ships taking damage while still zoomed out to highlight where ships are in relation to them. Is this scimitar on 0 with the vindicator and webbed to hell and back, or is it slowly building range and possibly going to escape?

Granted this is the very first day so I look forward to things improving over time. Thanks guys for being bold enough to at least volunteer to be commentators!
