Ability to zoom out further

[Miingno]

As a Lalafell I sometimes have trouble targeting larger enemies such as dungeon and raid bosses.
Because they are so big, the name and hp-bar are so far out off the screen, that the game constantly thinks they’re out of reach. I have to move back away from the enemy in order to be able to target them.
Also certain attacks that are indicated on the enemy’s head or even above such as Famfrit, the Darkening Cloud’s spin of its the ewer and then flood wave, are incredibly hard to see and therefore dodge because I have to move far away from the enemy in order to actually see where the attack will point at.
So if we would be able to zoom out further, that could help a lot with this kind of issue. Also, I think it would actually make the game look better if you could see more at once, such as flying did.
And I mentioned Lalafell specifically at the start because on my alt where I’m a Miqo'te, I don’t have these issues at all.

Have you tried the 3rd Person Camera Angle setting?



Raising it helps quite a lot, even with taller races.
You can even keybind it. I did. I can hold alt+up arrow to go up, and down arrow to go down, and adjust it on the fly as I need.

Thanks, I know about this one yet it's not handy at all and actually brings a new problem. When the angle is too high, I can't see the floor below my character and will miss attacks indicated underneath me.
So I'd have to constantly move up and down with the angle as well. Just a bit more zoom out would fix all the problems at once and even benefit the game! Yoshi-P once did zoom out with his dev-commands during the Shiva fight and showed how fast the landscape around the arena actually is. All that is hidden for Lalafell players ;_;

Found the video again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XdQMXinVahg
Well it's not exactly that video, yet shows what I mean very nicely. I cannot even zoom out at far as it's shown in the first 10 seconds ;_;

I went in the Shiva fight and stood where Yoshida did just so I could compare it. 1st mine, 2nd the video and what I would already be very happy with:



But of course, that comparison here shows what would be even better

I'd actually like it extended in both directions, letting us both zoom out farther and zoom in farther, (though the later is a purely cosmetic benefit of less importance than the gameplay issues Miingno brought up in the original post).
