Here’s a nifty little shortcut I stumbled upon today. My apologies if you’ve already tried this one, but I thought it was pretty cool!
If you go into your System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse… Click on the Mouse tab at the top.
Down at the very bottom of this window you’ll see ‘Zoom using scroll ball while holding…’ and then a drop down menu of key selections. Leave the CTRL button selected (or choose another key, it’s really your personal preference).

Now, watch the magic. Hold down the CTRL button and scroll with the scroll ball. Talk about zooming fun!
To scroll up/down once zoomed in, let go of the CTRL button and use your scroll ball. To zoom back out to the normal view, hold down the CTRL button again and scroll out. Try it out if you haven’t tried this before!
