Is there any way to zoom out the camera in DotA 2? I've found my ideal aspect ratio - and holy crap, is the resolution terrible if you're not on the right one!
Even with the right ratio, I feel like I can't quite see enough of the screen, especially in the vertical direction. Any tips?

There is no way to zoom out further. You can zoom in, that's all.
6You can't zoom out during normal game play, but you can unlock the camera while viewing replays.
There is no way to zoom out further, I am sorry.
Because of this I strongly recommend moving the keys that direct the camera to a very easy to get spot, and get used to using them exclusively... in fact, turn off edge-panning, and increase the camera pan speed a lot. This will improve your ability to look around frequently during gameplay, despite having a limited field of view.
I should note that widescreen displays see a larger portion of the gamefield than narrow ones; they see more to the sides. Because of this, attacking from above or below is often more effective than from a side, as the vertical view is fixed and limited, but the horizontal is much greater.
