Mousewheel zoom-out was definitely not a classic feature. Most of the F9 camera angles were really awkward and not functional to use while engaged in combat. As far as I know it was pretty much universal to play exclusively in first person, with a few exceptions.
Looking back, the fact that EQ basically forced a first person view on you definitely made it more immersive when compared to newer MMOs. You felt like you were actually IN the world, rather than watching your character run around it.
