Rear View Camera
(Preview)
Does anyone have a rear view camera that gives good depth of field, we currently have a reversing camera but unless a vehicle is really close it can't be seen on the screen. My husband has been researching and has found that a 90 degree angle lens is what is needed. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks...
