This is correct. But however consider that distortion around the edges
of the view caused by the lens (and generally more so with wider lenses)
may give a false impression of perspective change.

While considering perspective as closer or farther, also notice the
change that occurs with left or right and up or down. Keep in mind that
this lateral or vertical changing of position will have a new
perspective. Such as when moved up, the ground in the foreground may
now be farther away and tree tops may be closer.
