absolute / abs		bool
	This flag modifies the behavior of the distance and zoomRatio flags. If specified, the distance and zoomRatio value will be applied directly.
downDistance / d		float
	Set the amount of down pan distance in inches
leftDistance / l		float
	Set the amount of left pan distance in inches
relative / rel		bool
	This flag modifies the behavior of the distance and zoomRatio flags. If specified, the distance or zoomRatio value is used multiply the camera’s existing value. By default the relative flag is always on.
rightDistance / r		float
	Set the amount of right pan distance in inches
upDistance / u		float
	Set the amount of up pan distance in inches

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

pm.camera()
# Result: [nt.Transform(u'camera1'), nt.Camera(u'cameraShape1')] #

pm.panZoom( 'cameraShape1', d=0.3 )

pm.panZoom( 'cameraShape1', abs=True, u=0.4 )

pm.panZoom( 'cameraShape1', z=0.5 )
