1st person View and Zoom through binoculars

[TheJokerMan 0]

Hello I am quite new and I searched all that I could and found some pretty interesting stuff but I didn't find the answer that I'm looking for.  I want for the mission to start with a completly black screen and fade in, in about 3 seconds, to a 1st person view through binoculars looking at a truck up on a hill and maybe zoom towards it a little.  I have problem though, I don't know anything.   I do know a little, I can make camera move around and focus on different things.  But could someone help me please with the fading and binocs?
