hey Cy, its not a bug, but I get your frustation about it, all the time.
the thing is that little rectangle next to the camera you click to view thru it, if you have any viewport selected (a hightlight around the viewport frame) and then click on that little rectangle, the viewport will transform to that camera.
the trick is to always highlight the topleft viewport (that is usually the camera/perspective view) and then click in that button to view what the camera is viewing.
if you were on the top view and clicked that, just click again to go back to the top view, then select the correct view port and click again.
if you want just the perspective view and do not change the camera, you should select the view port that is being used for the camera and click that rectangle off, so it will throw you back to the perspective view, or you can just change some of the isometric views to perspective and use it.
pro tip: if you want to lock your camera, just put a protection tag in it silly! :D (c4d tags > protection tag)
