OK, I was trying to create the process from memory, and well, memory does not serve me well, LOL. If you select the camera (perspective) in one of the orthographic views (from front,  from right, from left, from top) and then select "Attributes" from the "Object" drop-down menu at the top of the screen you will see 3 sets of coordinates. I have them set in the following manner:

(0,10,-50)

(0,10,-50)

(0,0,0)

then add a sphere to the scene. When you switch to "camera view", you should see the sphere in the center of the screen.

Then everything should work as described in my first post.

Sorry,

John
