This bundle is marked as recommended. It works and satisfies the submission rules.
There seem to be a whole bunch of camera systems on hive, but no system for isometric view that addresses an inherent issue with those camera systems.
The SetCameraTargetController native behaves incredibly awful around steep terrain and often sinks into the ground for no reason or lets the anchored unit escape to the edge of the screen. This simple system fixes that by adjusting the camera z-offset dynamically.
Instead of doing SetCameraTargetController(whichUnit, ...), you do FCL_Lock(whichUnit, whichPlayer).

When I saw the fixed camera lock, it was clear how horrible the normal the camera is, splendid.

damn bro how is this only "Recommended" ?? it should be Director's Cut! 
but I have a question, why did you use pathing blockers in the test map?? this system shines the brightest when maneuvering steep hills!

Fixed an issue where a player could unlock the camera by pressing ALT + C (didn't know that was a thing).
