OK,

I think this is what you are after. I assume this code gets run once per frame.
Ditch both old camera-control lines, and replace with this (untested) code.
Code:
...
   VECTOR tempV;   //note:: this line can be outside(before) the loop
...
   vec_lerp(tempV, vec_diff(tempV, camera.x, player.x), 0.2);
   vec_set(camera.x, vec_add(tempV, player.x));
...


PS :: You could also use three spare player.skill's instead of tempV if you want...
