Select:

Events

Player - Player 1 (Red) Selects a unit

Conditons

Actions

Camera - Lock camera target for (Triggering player) to (Triggering unit), offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Default rotation

Deselect:

Events

Player - Player 1 (Red) Deselects a unit

Conditions

Actions

Camera - Reset camera for (Triggering player) to standard game-view over 1.00 seconds

That might work, though I'm not sure if (Triggering Unit) in the first trigger returns a value.
