I really like the folding tonneau covers like the BAKFlip # BAK72330 F1 that you'd looked at, but when it's folded up against the rear of the truck cab, it will absolutely block your OEM camera, rendering it useless as long as the tonneau cover is open. As you can see in the provided photo, the open cover completely covers the rear of the cab making it impossible to see out the rear window.

Instead of a folding cover, I'd recommend a roll-up hard cover like the BAK Revolver X2, part # BAK39330. The cover sits flush with the tops of the bed sides when it's fully closed for a clean look. When it's rolled up, it won't block your camera, as shown in the provided photo. It'll also leave most of the rear window unobstructed. I've recommended the Revolver X2 to several friends, and they are extremely pleased with it.

I've linked to an installation video.
