Hi!
Well, the title of this post should already say it:
When I animate my (free) camera from A to B I want it to stop between this points for a couple of frames. So I insert a keyframe somewhere in between, copy it, move on a couple of frames and paste the keyframe. But - and I do not understand why - AfterEffects decides, to move the camera back and forth between this two identical frames.

Not to mention that this drives me up the walls, whats the proper way to make a camera stop for a while (using easy ease in and out) between to points?

Thanks a lot!

Check out the graph for the cameras position and adjust the tangents of the keyframes.

using 'hold' keyframes helps

Change that first bezier keyframe to a hold keyframe and you should be good, explanation here:
