I always manually move to the angle and zoom I prefer and set the place markers....one for side, top, front, etc.

These place markers will also maintain focal changes too.

This also comes in handy when working on a particular item that I've moved way out of the scene to manipulate, remodel, ect.

Afterward you can ALT-click on the place markers and clear them for further use.

Not exactly sure why your camera angle would change after zooming back out unless you inadvertinely selected the camera while zoomed in and changed its position without knowing it. On the top left of the interface are 5 or 6 small beads (right beside the Nano Preview window if I remember correctly - dont have Bryce on my PC here at work) which you can select to remember your exact camera positioning. One thing I will always do before using the Zoom tool or playing around with different camera settings is to click one of  these. After your done editing in the Zoom mode and Zoomed back out, if your camera is not where it should be just click on that same bead and your exact camera positioning will be restored.
