I create two renderers that show the same 3D model. Make the camera in the right renderer linkage with the left one’s, that means we can get the same view in the right renderer when we modify the status of the camera of the left renderer.
Here is all information of implementations.

    vtkSPtrNew( reader, vtkOBJReader );

    reader->Update();

    vtkSPtrNew( mapper1, vtkPolyDataMapper );
    mapper1->SetInputConnection( reader->GetOutputPort() );

    vtkSPtrNew( actor1, vtkActor );
    actor1->SetMapper( mapper1 );

    vtkSPtrNew( mapper2, vtkPolyDataMapper );
    mapper2->SetInputConnection( reader->GetOutputPort() );

    vtkSPtrNew( actor2, vtkActor );
    actor2->SetMapper( mapper2 );

    // Define viewport ranges
    // (xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax) left-top and right-bottom point
    double leftViewport[4] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.5, 1.0};
    double rightViewport[4] = {0.5, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0};
    // Setup renderers
    vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer> leftRenderer =
        vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer>::New();
    leftRenderer->SetViewport( leftViewport );
    leftRenderer->SetBackground( .6, .5, .4 );
    leftRenderer->AddActor( actor1 );
    leftRenderer->ResetCamera();
    leftRenderer->GetActiveCamera()->ParallelProjectionOn();

    vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer> rightRenderer =
        vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer>::New();
    rightRenderer->SetViewport( rightViewport );
    rightRenderer->SetBackground( .4, .5, .6);
    rightRenderer->AddActor( actor2 );
    rightRenderer->ResetCamera();

    vtkSPtrNew( renderWindow, vtkRenderWindow );

    vtkSPtrNew( iStyle, CustomIteractorStyle );
    iStyle->Setm_LeftRender( leftRenderer );
    iStyle->Setm_RightRender( rightRenderer );
    iStyle->Init();

    renderWindowInteractor->SetInteractorStyle( iStyle );
    renderWindow->Render();
    renderWindowInteractor->Start();
    return 0;
}

    Point newPos = newFocal + focalToPos * dis;

    targetCamera->SetViewUp( sampleViewUp.point );
    targetCamera->SetParallelScale( parallelValue );

    m_LastVTKCameraFocal = sampleFocal;

}

But I can’t see the whole body of the right one after rotating the left 3D model.

rotate1

Let’s set the same clipping range with the left camera.

void CustomIteractorStyle::KeepSameCameraStatus()
{
//...
    double *sClippingRange = sampleCamera->GetClippingRange();
    targetCamera->SetClippingRange( sClippingRange[0], sClippingRange[1]

It seems correct after configure the clipping range.

rotate2

The OBJ file I used in my project can be created on the page: create 3d text

The relevant interfaces in VTK:

// Automatically set the clipping range of the camera based on the
// visible actors

  double allBounds[6];

  this->ComputeVisiblePropBounds(allBounds);
