here is a small script that will create a camera w/ aim at any camera view......I just use it as a button on my shelf, you could also make a hot key with it in the hot key editor…
{
$currentPanel = `getPanel -withFocus`;
$currentCam = `modelPanel -query -camera $currentPanel `;
print $currentCam;
float $camPos[] = `xform -query -translation $currentCam`;
print $camPos;
float $camRot[] = `xform -query -rotation $currentCam`;
print $camRot;
string $newCam[] = camera();
print $newCam;
xform -translation $camPos[0] $camPos[1] $camPos[2] $newCam[0];
xform -rotation $camRot[0] $camRot[1] $camRot[2] $newCam[0];
cameraMakeNode( 2, $newCam[0]);
}
there also are some good camera scripts on highend3d site....there is a camera crane rig script and some dynamic handicam type scripts......

.....make sure that the viewport is selected...there should be a thin green frame around the whole viewport signifying that that view has “focus”.....then execute the script.......also if you open the script editor you will see all the commands maya issues and any errors that may occur.....if an error still occures it is likely the last command...."cameraMakeNode( 2, $newCam[0]);”...just delete that one line.

When you have your perspective view set up to where you want it, and then want to make it a camera view, just hit ctrl+C. This creates a camera set up to the current view. Let me know if it works:)
Calvin.
p.s. But that is only in Autodesk 3DS Max. If your using Maya, I don’t know.

What I do is, in the viewport go,
view>select camera
then
Ctrl+D or Edit>Duplicate
just re-name so as not to get confused.

cjkoepke, no it does not work, that is the copy shortcut. Thanks though. And I don’t think that works in 3ds max either.
ctrl+C is the universal shortcut for copy.
