* '''Streamlined Find interface'''
** The Find panel has been replaced by a Find toolbar that appears near the bottom of the browser window.

* '''Enhanced AppleScript capabilities'''
** AppleScripts can now refer to individual tabs and windows.
** It is now possible to add, open, and delete bookmarks via AppleScript.
** Camino now supports [http://wiki.caminobrowser.org/Development:Camino_AppleScript_Guide custom toolbar items] written in AppleScript.

** Camino can now pass feeds to certain web-based feed readers.

* '''User interface polish'''
** Camino 1.6 includes a number of new toolbar icons and interface enhancements to fit more closely with the visual style of Mac OS X 10.5.

==Known Issues==
For information about other issues or problems, please visit our [http://caminobrowser.org/help/ Help page].

* Version 2.2 of the Flip4Mac (F4M) plug-in for displaying Windows Media content causes major rendering issues in Camino. The Flip4Mac team will fix this problem in a future release of the plug-in.

* After visiting enough pages with Flash content while browsing, Camino may stop functioning correctly. Quitting and re-launching Camino will resolve the problem. This behavior is caused by a bug in the Flash plug-in, which will be fixed in a future Flash plug-in release.
