Moving, Zoom, etc. Need Help.

Hi, I want to know how I can move my camera in blender vertically and horizontally in orthographic and front view without going into “3D” view, how to I move around in that same view up and down??

Thanks!

Select the camera, G, XX/YY to move along local X/Y. G, middle mouse button to zoom in and out, RR to get trackball rotation.
You can also align the camera to the viewport view with ctrl+alt+numpad_0. There’s an option to lock the camera view on the properties panel (N), which allows you to move the camera view as any other view in the viewport. Just have to disable that lock after done.
