Dear Murray,
You need to use RotationAction->"Clip".
e.g.,
Graphics3D[{Sphere[{0, 0, 0}, 1], Sphere[{0, 0, 1.2}, 1/2],
Sphere[{1, 0, 0.5}, 1/4], Sphere[{-1, 0, 0.5}, 1/4],
Sphere[{-0.5, 0, -1}, 1/4], Sphere[{0.5, 0, -1}, 1/4],
Sphere[{0.2, 0.4, 1.3}, 1/8], Sphere[{-0.2, 0.4, 1.3}, 1/8],
Sphere[{0, 0.5, 1.1}, 1/8]}, RotationAction -> "Clip"]
Best wishes,
Mark
