how to lock a view

I'm exporting renders from Revit to photoshop and then adding finishing detail, as the Revit project slightly changes, I can re-render and then import the updated image to Photoshop. how can I keep the exact same view in Revit to re-render.

When I lock a view using the bottom screen icon, right click, lock 3d view, I'm still able to pan zoom.... don't want this.

I need something locked down tight, like a farmer's daughters house, to keep the image in Photoshop form changing perspective or panning even slightly.

-cheers,

Use save orientation and lock the view (the little house with the lock on the bottom of the screen...)

If your placing a Camera to get your 3D view, you can Pin the Camera. in the 3D view, you can zoom in an out, but the perspective doesn't change, only the view size. if you maximize your view each time before you render and do a Zoom to Fit, it should stay the same. 

 

after you pin the camera, also lock the view.....

I always placed the 3d views on sheet. When you export it as image, the view on sheet will always export out exactly the same.
