SonyOpticalZoom
by spc20100615
SonyOpticalZoom gives Fabric players a Sony-style optical zoom bound to a key they assign themselves.
What it does
Pressing the designated zoom key narrows the view, and the mouse wheel adjusts the magnification while the key is held. The current magnification appears on a progress bar along the left edge of the screen. The mod runs on the client alone, so players install it without any server-side change. It is released under the MIT License and is open source; the source code is public. Its only published build is 1.0.0 for 1.21.1.

What the author says
Sony-style optical zoom, yep that's right. When you press the designated button (can be assigned), you can zoom in on the view. You can adjust the zoom level with the mouse wheel. Besides that, there will be a zoom level progress bar on the left side of your screen. Yep, just like Sony, really cool…
