I tried to manipulate the camera's position but with no success. If in axial initially the position is 0,0,1 and the view up 0,1,0 it is suposed to change position to 0,0,-1 to get an horizontal flip, but I get no change. Maybe I'm missing another stuff with the camera, like clipping range, parallel scale...? Does anybody know?
