6. Next, we can adjust the camera position, rotate, far and near. The method is: Position: click and hold on the Middle-key on the mouse, and move it; Rotate: click and hold on the Right-key on the mouse, and move it. Far and Near: roll the mouse wheel to adjust it. Look, we already adjust the camera to the front of the car.
