And Realy name the Section "Why Cameras don't belong in the Scene > Graph" to catch peoples attention. This camera terminology is an evil pitfall > for osg beginners who are experienced using game engines! :) Don's article of Andes Engineering is a position paper from Don on the topic of scene graph and cameras. It's a position that I don't subscribe too. OSG since 2.x does not use Producer, and doesn't have this division between cameras and scene graphs. In OSG 2.x a "Viewer" has a "View" of a "Scene" and a master "Camera" that takes picture of that "Scene". A Camera can used external to the scene graph such as with a master or slave Camera in a View(er) or in the scene graph for RTT effects such as shadows, or HUDs.
