I think we're talking two different things here.
Take a sphere, use camera 1. As you zoom out, the camera view becomes increasingly more wide angle and distorted. If you were to dolly out, you'd stay at 100% and the view would not be distorted.
Because isometric cameras do not worry about perspective, you don't have this behavior with them.
I model planets, and I've had to go out that far, with large models, just to try to keep the scale applicable with anything else that's in the picture.
