CameraModetype

How the camera is held: ground (the default) over a place on the ground, so the Earth keeps still and the clock moves the light across it; space held in the stars, so the Earth turns beneath it as the clock runs and the day and night line stays where the Sun really puts it; sun held on the Sun's side, so the day and night line keeps its place on the screen while the Earth turns beneath.
