It's F5 on the Mac as well, but a lot of Macs have different functions attached to the keys. (For example my mac book pro uses F5 to dim the lights under the keys). If you go to System Preferences, keyboard and Mouse then there's a check box you tick to take off the tagged function.
Once that's done, then you just hit F5 in the game and you'll be in 3rd person mode behind and above your character's head.

You press the "F5" button and then it switches to a view like a small robot is hovering slightly over your head while videotaping you.

Press FN (bottom left key) and F5. It will put you in 3rd person. Also, FN F3 will display your co-ordinates and show numbers above mobs heads. Great for finding caverns :)

More Questions from This Game
This Minecraft tutorial explains how to change the camera angle between first person and third person perspective when you play the game.
When you create a new world in Minecraft, you will start in first person view. However, you can switch to third person mode and see your body in the game, either from the front or from behind.
Views in Minecraft
These are the three different views in Minecraft. Let's explore each of them.
1. First Person View
With the first person view, you see the game from the player's perspective. The only part of the player that you see is the player's right hand or the item the player is holding.
2. Third Person Rear View
With the third person rear view, you see the game as if you were standing behind the player. You will see the player's body from the back.
3. Third Person View
With the third person view, you see the game as if you were facing the player. You will see the player's body from the front.
Game Control to Change the View
In Minecraft, you can toggle between these three views (camera angles) using a game control. Here are the game controls to change between views on the Minecraft platforms:
Press F5 key | |
Pause game, go to Settings, select Video button and change "Camera Perspective" setting | |
Press down on Left Stick (LS) | |
Press down on Left Stick (LS) | |
Press down on Left Stick (LS) | |
Press down on Left Stick (LS) | |
Press F5 key | |
Press down on Left Stick | |
Press down on Left Joycon Stick | |
Press F5 key |
Toggle Order for the View
When you toggle between views in Minecraft, here is the order of the camera angles:
First Person → Third Person Rear → Third Person → back to First Person
When you press the game control to toggle the view, you will move to the next camera angle. Depending on which view you want, you might have to press the game control more than once.
