[https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A) Hello there wonderful people. I have a new question. Animation is an area of Babylon Js that I have just started into. It’s really cool and something that is truly beautiful and fun to play with. But not when it’s a little odd. I would really appreciate some help with my code above. I have diamonds in the scene - once you click on one - the set target of the camera points to that and it animates in(Line 70 +). I am having trouble with one thing. I’d like the camera target to smoothly transition to the chosen target. I found this forum page : [http://www.html5gamedevs.com/topic/23563-smooth-settarget/](http://www.html5gamedevs.com/topic/23563-smooth-settarget/), in particular this playground: [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#4HUQQ#90](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#4HUQQ#90) This good soul has the smooth transition working (Line 41), but both a smooth transition and a blend is something I’m looking for. Please can anyone point me in the right direction? ---

I think @Pryme8 did something similar recently: [Animate Camera Target](https://forum.babylonjs.com/t/animate-camera-target/3234) Maybe he could give us a hint ? ---

Thank you sebavan - I’m gonna try out what he suggested in the mean time, it looks promising 🙂 ---

Right I’ve got something good - based on the notes of @Pryme8 - thank you Pryme8. And thank youu @sebavan as you were the compass. [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A#1](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A#1) However this may be a newbie question - but how would I play both at the same time / simultaneously? It would add to a much more beautiful transition and be something likely used by others in future. ---

I’m being simple - I just tweaked the settings. ---

You could also animate the radius instead of the cam position 🙂 [https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A#3](https://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#7B4S6A#3) ---
