stuck in snapShotCam1 ??

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

I don't know what I did this time, but my 'Perspective' is stuck in some 'snapShotCam1' posittion. Tried in all viewports. I can't pan, dolly or anything. It's just stuck.
What is this? And more important, how to get my perspective viewport back?

Tried, but it jumps to the snapShotCam1 view.
In the outliner it show that there is a snapShotCam2 too. Don't know how I got them. Couldn't find anything in the manual nor the MEL command reference with "snapShotCam". With google I found 1 document with keywords "Maya" and "snapShotCam":

Is it an obsolete cammand from older versions that DISCREET forgot to throw out or something?
If anybody knows, I would still like to know what it is.

However, I deleted the snapShotCam 1 and 2 from my outliner and can happily pan and dolly in my perspective viewport again user added image
