The last unknown byte 4 Render mode seems to be these : -8 ('08') = render characters over FMV and masks meshes over characters (hiding/masking them) -16('10') = render characters over FMV (not masked) -17('11') = don't render characters over FMV -80('50) = End Transition? (not sure what's this exactly but for some reasons in blank animation data often changes sure the character are not rendered with this on) the 80 mode (when used) is active for the last 4 framesframe only and seems like it's not used when the fmv transition to the field at the end (eg.attack on Dollet landing or Galbadia Garden intro)
The camera data is really similar to the Field one contained in the .CA files.
Thanks to TrueOdin that bringed them to my attention it looks like beta PC version for FF7 had some cam files too but they were slightly different:
-each frame sector is 40byte size with no 'END' marker
-there is no header so if you want to know the frame count you have to divide the filesize by 40
-Zoom is not repeated
The structure for FF7 .cam sector is something like this :

If someone is willing to create a ff7 wiki page for this feel free to move this last part there.
