Hi,
you want to turn the right handed system used by Mathematica
into a left handed system. This is simply obtained by
setting the ViewVertical option to
ViewVertical->{0,0,-1}
The projection is now upside down (as usual in a pipe hole
camera) And it is up to you to turn the picture.
You may do the projection by your self using the Plot3Matrix
option. The option is not more documented because it is obsolent
since version 2 of Mathematica but it still seems to work.
Regards
Jens
