   Z Cam at present shows a clear indication of damping oscillations.
This feature was also seen when the object entered a standstill in 2001
(see IBVS 5093; just to note, this phenomenon was apparently first
clearly recognized in 1984 by Szkody and Mattei, PASP 96, 988).

   Have a fun with this new stage of Z Cam!
