whats up with the reverse camera quality on the raptors?

doesn't really have a clear picture. nothing looks sharp at all, i know its not a hdtv but the quality can definitely be alot better. i have surveillance cameras that are clearer.

anyone else notice this? could it just be mine?

my last 2 vehicles (GM) and my gf's lexus all had pretty nice back up cameras.

i thought the camera lense might of been dirty but after cleaning it still looks the same.

I didn't get the nav system in my Raptor, so my reverse camera viewing is my rear view mirror & my camera viewing is clear & sharp

hmmmm... mine is definitely not as clear as my denali was... even my gf noticed as well.

so i guess nobody really has any complaints about it other than me.
im gonna have to dig a little deeper and see whats up

That is weird.. Is the plastic shipping film still on the lens? Maybe the dealer missed it at pdi?

i dont think it has the film but i could be wrong. i'll check in the morning.
i did wash and dry the vehicle 2 days ago.

how big around would this film be?

Yea mine is very clear, even pretty good at night. Only time it's been cloudy is when muddy :headbang:

I do wish they put a cleaner on the rear like the front!!

You know there is some settings you can adjust, when you put it in reverse, it says settings, push it , then play with the adjustments. maybe that will fix it? Camera is awesome in this truck imo. Go to.Ford and ask to see one on a different truck.
