I can create a walk through easy enough but I just want to do a walk around in a semi circle to show the facade of a building to a client. So how do I keep the camera view on the model yet move the camera in a semi circular path around the building??

In your HELP read: Editing Walkthrough Frames
Resetting Target Points
You can move the position of the camera's target point at a key frame, for example, to create the effect that the camera is looking side to side. To reset the target points back to following the path, click Modify | Cameras tab Walkthrough panel (Reset Cameras).

Thanks for the reply.
I went there but it is like all Autodesk help answers they are cerated by experts and people who are probably intimate with the product & use the program intuitivly. I unfortunatly am not intuitve yet.
I cannot find a (Reset Cameras) command/button. So I created the "walkthrough" process & then used the Edit Walkthrough button. Maybe as i did not specify the Revit year could be the problem (just like ACA used to change its interface every year made it hard to follow).
So start the walkthrough process & just click points along ones camera route to your finish. Use perspective on or off. Then go to edit walkthrough (bad & deceptive terminology!!) The control bar comes up with a frame editing/control panel. One can now go back through the key frames (the points one clicked to create with) using the "Previous Key Frame" button to edit each frame. The camera shows up with a direction point locator & a far distance locator, you can drag these to your desire. You have to go back to each "Key Frame" to adjust each one back to the start of your vid.
Then go to "Open Walkthrough" there you can use the video controls on the control panel to play your vid to preview it. Click outside the highlighted view box & you will get a dialog box query asking "do you want to quit editing the walkthrough", click yes. Now of course you want to create a vid others can view, so go to the big A at the top left of the screen & click Export & Images & Animations (much better terminology than "walkthroughs"). You want to export your walkthrough & you get options for the type of visual effect you want to show, from wire frame to render. Go ok & you get the option where you want to put it. The program will then run through the animation, let it run cos its sending the vid to your location.
Viola your basically done! Perhaps my first contribution I will try to get the vid up somewhere it can ve viewed.
Thanks again Hub, Hope this helps others.

Interesting!! I can go to the Revit help file anytime I want to, & usually do as 1st port of call, I thought the forum was for helping people in a better manner, but anyhow good thing there are plenty of Revit blogs, You Tube vid's & Forums out there.
Did anyone find my way of explaining the walkaround usefull?? I did notice there were 30 or so views of the subject but no other comments?
I have posted my answer elsewhere, it will be interesting to see if it is of any value?
