If you mean to track you, right click with the camera tool

I think he means having the camera in first person view, all you need to do for that is equip the cameragun or use HUD hiding commands. You don't need the camera tool for that.

The specific commands you are looking for are:
cl_drawhud 0 (set to 1 for default)
hud_deathnotice_time 0 (set to 6 for default)

There is also r_drawvgui 0 to hide everything at once including errors but also hides the escape menu and console so it's difficult to enable again. However there is a solution, copy this into your console to make your pagedown key toggle between it.

bind pgdn "toggle r_drawvgui"

I'm still confused, if you right click a camera will track you, if you left click (and setup different binds for each camera) you can set angles of a camera too.

What he wants is this;

He wants a camera to record from an angle somewhere else.

But he also wants to be looking through his first person perspective, whilst recording.
