If your object is relatively small and symetrical add a CurveCircle and put a FollowPath Constraint on the camera (which has a TrackTo constraint targeting the object so the camera looks at it). If it’s not small and symetrical, like a train you’ll have to shape your CurveCircle to fit it, which might be as much trouble as just keyframing the LocRot of the camera.
