Orcarina of Time go to were Zelda is in the castle. Go under the bridge she is on, use the mirror. BANG! There it is.
I thought this was gonna be about using the camera to look around corners.
I've done that maybe a couple times. I usually get too embarassed.

I never play female characters, but sometimes I get the 3rd person camera to look at the right places on female characters I'm not controling.
For the most part, I use the 3rd person camera to make it seem like my character actually has perif vision.
It's annoying in FPS games when you can't see out the corners of your eyes.
Nah, I'm kiding...
GIRLS LOOK AT GRUFF GUYS?!

As someone who deliberately denies developers and directors my money for making films, shows, or games with level of fanservice I deem unwieldy or cheap, I usually go out of my way not to do this. Mass Effect was particularly bad about this; whenever you get in an elevator- and I really shouldn't have to point out to anyone how likely an eventuality this is- the camera seems to gravitate directly to asscrack level, and with my party usually consisting of Tali, Liara, and myself, I usually have to alter the visible latitude a touch or two to avoid assaulting my own dignity.
It's not that I shun sexuality in media; it's that I disdain the use of gratuitous sexualization as duct tape or wrapping paper on weak product. My mind is a CEO not easily swayed by the Chairman of the Board.

Ha, I came into this thread expecting it to be about a 3rd person shooter in an online game, hiding around corners camping and using cheap tactics with the camera. So I can't say I have used in that way before.
Though in AvP a stealth kill with an alien on a marine leaves them in a very... suggestive position. Totally up to chance to happen, but I laugh, and feel dirty, every time it does.

Uncharted 2 acknowledges this in some of their many scenes when you have to give someone a boost to be able to reach a ladder.
One Scene.Drake: "Oh, it's a shame you have to sit on something that pretty."
A different scene. Chloe(when you're giving her a boost up): "Oh, I think you're enjoying this a bit too much."
Yet another scene. Drake: "You've got a great ass Sully! (Sully is a 60 year old man)."
