Question:
What is the field of view?
asked by: Charles T
Expert Reply:
The Hopkins Smart Hitch Backup Camera and Hitch Aligner System part # HM50002 has a limited field of view as the viewing angle is only 110°. Therefore, it is primarily used for hitch alignment and coupling but it can also be used as just a standard reverse/backup camera. I know it's not as cost effective but if you're looking for a better option with more field of view, I recommend the Rear View Safety Backup Camera System part # RVS-778718N which has a 170° field of view and it uses an integrated rearview mirror/monitor so you aren't adding a bulky monitor to the dash.
