I am now using image reference to sculpt. But why the camera does NOT lock forever until I unlock the camera?

When I create a new camera, I can lock the camera, but then if I press next the camera unlocks itself and I need to reposition my model to my image reference. Why the camera dettaches itself?  
I pressed LOCK.

Is there a way to lock the camera forever?  
I create a second camera for this effect but nothing works.
