Question:
A platform bike rack that has folding masts like the Saris SuperClamp part # SA4025F would be a great choice. When you aren't carrying any bikes the rack would fold down far enough that your rear camera would be unobstructed. Also since the wheel clamps are to the outsides of the rack it would have the least amount of obstruction when carrying bikes as well. You'd still have to look through the frame of the bikes but there's no real way to get around that with a bike rack carried at the rear of the vehicle.
