Distance parameter for components

Hi all,

 

Is there a way to make all components move the same distance if I move only one of the components?

Example would be here. I want to move one of the cameras (BLACK) and then I would like to other follow (ORANGE) exact same distance:

P.S. I tired mirror option, but that does not do anything.

 

Best,

Kritzz

Note:

I tried doing the pattern option and then going back to the history marker, changing the position of parent, saving position and then going to the end of the history marker, but this takes too much time.

Hi,

Here is a better example that uses an imported camera.
Watch the Screencast and follow the actions in the timeline and parameter list.
