Paraview Elevation command

I 've been trying to write a python script for paraview that rotates the camera. it looks like this:

from paraview.simple import *
paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset()
camera=GetActiveCamera()
# get animation scene
animationScene1 = GetAnimationScene()
#camera.Azimuth(45)          
#Render()
camera.Elevation(45)       
Render()

So while azimuth rotates the structure 45 degrees and 8 rotations bring it back to the original position, elevation is different. It only takes 6 rotations and it is like the rotations 3 and 4 are skipped. It also gives a warning
Reseting view up since view plane normal is parallel

Any suggestions are much appreciated Thanks!

As it turns out, if you add the command

camera.OrthogonalizeViewUp()

it prevents the warning and thus the orientation change of the camera
