You can do it like this --

#declare Loc1 = <0,1,-10>;
#declare Loc2 = <1,1,-10>;
#declare Loc3 = <0,1,-15>;
#declare Loc4 = <1,1,-18>;
#declare Loc5 = <1,1,-17>;

#declare Look1 = <0,1,1>;
#declare Look2 = <1,1,1>;
#declare Look3 = <0,1,5>;
#declare Look4 = <1,1,9>;
#declare Look5 = <1,1,5>;

camera{location Loc1 look_at Look1}

This way once you have adjusted the numbers in the vectors
in the #declared statments you need change only two numbers,
for Loc and Look, and you have a new view.
