Toggle Zoom z (not available in slideshow)
Toggle Play / Pause Spacebar (slideshow only)

Note
Not all of the keyboard shortcuts work in the Opera browser, for example 'z' for toggling the zoom and 'spacebar' for toggling play / pause in slideshows. This can be overcome by updating your shortcut settings in the Opera preferences editor.

In more recent releases, it's possible to override these default keyboard shortcuts under "Advanced Settings" on admin/settings/lightbox2.
