2022 Cameras

Anyone else’s cameras seem a bit lacking in the clarity Dept? Seem a bit grainy on the new 12” screen. Disappointing to have such a nice screen but $25 backup cameras from Amazon have better picture quality.
Perhaps there’s an update to come or did Ford put in just cheap lenses?

there’s another thread on here where this is being discussed. Ford didn’t want to spend the money to give the SD nice cameras I guess. I’m going to go to the dealer and see if I can get a 21 f150 camera when I get annoyed enough. Even my guide lines are fuzzy

My 12" isn't fuzzy much at all. It's certainly not hi-def, but I never expected it to be hi-def. My guide lines are perfectly clear and sharp.

yes you did but Yours look fuzzy like mine. Maybe it’s just the way they are and what I think is fuzzy is just normal.

This is probably going to sound condescending but are positive the protective film has been removed from the camera lenses? Just mentioning because I had a friend complain about his phone camera and crappy pictures. Yep, you guessed it, still had the plastic protector on the lens.

Yeah, I guess it's just my old bad eyes, mine looks the same as Ltngdrvr's does. It's probably because I'm still used to the stupid little 7" I had in my 2013 F150. This 12" is like a 76" TV to me.

That looks fuzzy to you?
Granted, it isn't 4K ultra HD, but I sure don't think it's fuzzy.
Maybe you need glasses, like I do for reading...
