I would create a camera symbol showing direction and place that on the plan then create my view placing Revit's camera in the same place.  Trial and error then to move it to where you want it. 

As far as the lens,... I have not found away to identify it and besides that, digital cameras work differently.  I believe the initial lens is a "normal" lens but it will show you the inclusion angle in plan.  I would suggest you find out what angle your cameras will cover ... lay that out in your plan - then drag your range until it seems to match that.
