Well, look at Graphics/Testing/Cxx/expCos.cxx

The lines like:

  ren->GetActiveCamera()->Zoom(1.4);
  ren->GetActiveCamera()->Elevation(-55);
  ren->GetActiveCamera()->Azimuth(25);
  ren->ResetCameraClippingRange();

change the orientation.  Read the vtkCamera docs and try different
parameters to get what you want.
