The camera system is the main technical failing in BG3 as a videogame. It's not awful, but given the beauty of the environment, and the verticality and complexity of the settings, the inability of the camera system to offer 1st/3rd viewpoints ( my main gripe ) or fully encompassing viewpoints is disappointing.

I have not tried it myself, because I prefer more intimate cameras in RPGs, but there is supposedly a tactical camera, which might help you ( activate by the "o" key, I think, but you can check the key bindings in the options menu )
