Better reversing camera?

I'm sure the answer must be no as I have searched the forum, but in comparison to most other reverse cameras I have used, the image quality in my D4 (MY2014) is crap.

Are there any alternatives that can be used to replace it without any complicated changes to software etc?

Not that it helps you, but the quality of the rear camera on the D4’s that I owned varied from good to cr*p. The camera on the MY20 D5 was good in daylight but absolutely dire in the dark. Current MY17 FFRR rear camera is good.

There seems to be no consistency in quality. Odd!

I have a MY16 D4. Before that, I had a MY17 Alfa Stelvio. The rearview camera in the D4 is far better than the one in the Alfa, eventhough the Alfa one sits in an entirely newly developed system.

So, even if you think your rearview camera is bad, always remember it could be worse Wink

There was this discussion about camera on here a few days ago. Some useful info (as always) from members I felt. No solutions but a better understanding...
