So with zooming, we're going to change the magnification of the view, panning we're going to recenter the view, and with orbiting in 3D we're going to be able to change the vantage point that we're looking at the 3D model from. So the easiest and quickest way to do this is use the wheel on your mouse. So if you simply roll the wheel up, it zooms in, and when you roll down it zooms out.
