    Can the backup camera on the v be adjusted? Objects that are actually close look much farther away.

    It could be due to the way the camera is setup. I believe it might be a fish-eye lense, so you can see a little left and right as well, which would give the slight 'distant' look in the view.

    No, it can't be adjusted, short of making a corrective lens. It's a wide angle camera. Objects are supposed to look farther away.

    You also posted this same question in another thread. Please try to pick one and stick with it, otherwise the forums get cluttered.
