How to Add multiple cameras to viewport3D in WPF

I want to view my 3D object on the screen in four different angles using a perspective and orthographic camera. I am thinking of creating four radio buttons each for one camera, checking on which will switch over to that particular view. How to do this in WPF ? I have searched in google, but have not found a convincing answer for a betginner. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks

PS: I tried using <viewport3d.camera> four times, but I get an error that the method is already defined or something.

Also, Please let me know how to move the camera on 3D screen by dragging the mouse during run-time. I would like to view an object from different angles without rotating it.

Thanks

Any one 3d scene (Viewport3D) can only have one camera. if you want 4 different views then you have to have four Viewport3D and replicate your 3d world for each of them.

PS: I tried using four times, but I get an error that the method is already defined or something.
You should have shown us what you had tried and the exact error.

This is a Q&A not a "write me an article", the math involved in this and the amount of code well is not easy to understand, especially not when we do not know your level. And there is already tons of articles out there on that subject. E.g.
