-'''Mouselook, allows you to see Second Life from a 1st-person perspective — "through your avatar's eyes".''' The keyboard is still used to move your avatar, but your mouse, as the name suggests, is used to look around.
-To enter Mouselook, go to '''View''' menu > '''Mouselook''' or simply press {{K|M}} when the chat bar is closed or doesn't have focus (otherwise, you'll type an "M" in the chat bar). Instantly, the camera zooms into your avatar's perspective.
-To leave Mouselook, press {{K|Esc}}.
-== Show/hide your avatar in Mouselook ==
-You can toggle whether or not you see your avatar in Mouselook. Showing is useful if you want to feel a closer connection with your avatar, but if you're filming video and don't want your parts (depending on your avatar's size and attachments) to interfere, you can also hide your avatar.
-# Go to '''Edit''' > '''Preferences'''.
-# Click '''Input & Camera''' tab.
-# Next to '''Avatar Display Options''', either check or uncheck '''Show Avatar in Mouselook.
-# Click '''OK''' button.
-Go into Mouselook and see if you notice the difference, as shown in this video:

-== Advanced options ==
-== Caveats ==
-Mouselook can be a great way to gain additional immersion, but many parts of the user interface can't be accessed in Mouselook. For example, you can't build, nor can you sort your inventory. It's possible to open certain controls such as the Communicate window when in Mouselook, but since your mouse is controlling your avatar's viewpoint and not the regular cursor, you can't capably interact with them.
