Normal "camera move" zoom?
 

Is there a normal zoom function for external views in CoD?
I've got the mouse 5 zoom which works by changing the FoV without moving the camera, is there a zoom that can move the camera towards and away from a plane in external?
I want to zoom out without the fishbowl effect.

Did you try MiddleMouseButton and RMB and moving the mouse? Do you mean that effect? You can work also with pressing F10 to change exern views and behavior of mouse...

Hope this helps

What would be nice is too have the mouse wheel axis enabled for use with camera zoom,I use TrackIr but I still like to use the centre wheel of the mouse too.

In COD you can't do this yet,maybe another possible candidate for a fix come the next patch.

I figured it out, it's hold RMB but only when the cursor is switched off with f10.

Aah.....nice one Flanker15,good egg.
