Changing either the z-axis or the field of view will change the apparent size of your object:
Changing z-axis (ie focalLength) moves the object nearer/further to your eye, so it appears larger/smaller.
Changing fieldOfView changes the arc of your vision (kind of like using a fisheye or telephoto lens): if your field of view is large, your object will only take up a small part of that arc, so will appear small (=fisheye lens), but if your field of view is small (=telephoto) then your object occupies a large part of your arc, and appears big.

Hope that helps explain things a bit.
