This attribute specifies the initial elevation of the free camera with respect to the lookat point. Note that since
this is a rotation around a vector parallel to the camera's X-axis (right in pixel space), *negative* numbers
correspond to moving the camera *up* from the horizontal plane, and vice-versa.
