The default setting of SphericalRegion->False scales three-dimensional images to be as large as possible, given the display area specified. This scaling occurs as soon as you let the mouse button go after the click-drag, causing the extra translation you are experiencing. Setting SphericalRegion->True or the ViewAngle option to some value or option-clicking to zoom in or out makes the zoom value of the view fixed and no longer subject to the automatic scaling stated above. - Alexander
