Car reversing camera with 600 line resolution and 170 degree wide angle for safer parking

Reverse parking can be stressful when you cannot see what is behind your vehicle. This car reversing camera is designed to give you a clear image of the area behind you, reducing the guesswork. With 600 lines of ultra high resolution, the camera captures sharp detail that helps you spot obstacles, kerbs, and other cars. The wide 170 degree horizontal viewing angle covers a broad area, so you have a better sense of your surroundings. Whether you drive a saloon, hatchback, SUV, or van, this camera offers a practical way to improve your reversing safety.

Features and Construction

The camera uses proven components to deliver reliable performance. The image sensor and waterproof housing are built for outdoor exposure, and the OSD guide ruler line adds extra convenience when you are backing up.

Image Sensor and Resolution

The camera uses a VC 1/4 inch colour CCD chip that produces 600 lines of resolution, equating to 898 x 688 pixels. This level of detail helps you see number plates, posts, and other objects more clearly than a standard low-resolution camera. The minimum illumination of 0.2LUX means the camera works in low-light conditions, and the built-in LED light provides super high illuminance for night vision, automatically searching for enough light to show the area behind you.

Waterproof and Temperature Rating

The camera is rated IP67, meaning it is fully protected against dust and can survive immersion in water up to 1 metre for 30 minutes. This makes it suitable for rain, car washes, and everyday outdoor use. The camera operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -40°C to 70°C, so it works in both frosty winters and hot summers.

OSD Guide Ruler Line

A built-in on-screen display (OSD) reversing safety guide ruler line overlays a distance reference on the image. This helps you judge how close you are to objects behind the vehicle, making parking manoeuvres more predictable.

Uses and Placement

This camera is designed for rear mounting on cars, vans, and other vehicles. It can be fitted above the number plate or integrated into the bumper area, depending on your vehicle type and the kit you choose.

Vehicle Compatibility

The camera supports both NTSC and PAL video standards, so it works with most monitors and in-car displays sold in different markets. When ordering, you can select the standard that matches your existing setup. The 170 degree horizontal field of view covers a much wider area than a standard 120 degree camera, reducing blind spots.

Configurations Available

You can choose from several options: a 12 LED camera with 15m cable for installation flexibility, a monitor version that includes a small display, or a full set containing both camera and monitor. This lets you pick the setup that best suits your vehicle and budget.

Benefits and Buying Value

A reversing camera is a cost-effective safety upgrade for any vehicle. This model offers strong specifications without excessive complexity, making it a straightforward choice for drivers who want reliable night vision and a wide viewing angle.

Night Vision Performance

The 0.2LUX sensitivity combined with the LED light ensures you can see behind your vehicle even in poor lighting. The automatic search light feature adjusts the LED brightness to suit the dark environment, so you are not left with a dark image when reversing at night.

Durable for Long-Term Use

The IP67 rating and wide temperature tolerance mean the camera is built to last in the British climate of rain and temperature changes. Unlike cheaper cameras that fog up or fail after a few months, this unit is designed to keep working.
