How to Zoom in Minecraft

Zooming isn't a native feature in Minecraft. However, the OptiFine mod for Minecraft: Java Edition adds improved graphics and the ability to zoom. Minecraft: Java Edition is available on PC, Mac, and Linux computers. You cannot install mods on Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition or Minecraft for smartphones or game consoles. However, you can lower the field-of-view (FOV) in the Settings menu, which makes objects appear a little closer. This wikiHow teaches you how to zoom using the OptiFine mod and how to lower the FOV in the Settings menu.
