It's hard to say. Some of the roll is clear as day, yet other areas have that burry look to it. I'm not sure if it's a flaw in manufacturing but I don't like it either. Two rolls bought , both rolls have the flaws (blurry areas)

I don't know. I never received the product from Amazon seller even I complained. I got a refund. For Gila reviews check Lowes or Walmart website

I installed the film per directions and it was blurry and unacceptable for my ocean view

The smoke is not channaled out in any specific direction. Smoke escapes from the top as well as the sides.

Hi. Avoid this monocular. Bad resolution on the green display. The infrared has no visible effect on the image. As a whole this monocular sucks. I sold it at a loss to recover some of the expense

You can adjust the aspect ratio so that it fills the entire screen, but that would distort the picture somewhat. I like to put it in 4:3 mode, so it looks like a normal picture. Burn-in warnings be damned! But you'll be watching the important stuff through the HD air antenna anyway.I think the SD picture is just okay. It's a bit pixelated (probably because of the size of the TV) and the colors don't seem as sharp as my 23-year old Sony Trinitron. Once you see the HD picture, SD will look that much worse.

I haven't noticed any. Since its pretty good quality glass the direct view is distortion free for the whole lens. When I got this question I started playing with it and found no real distortion looking through at a angles up to 30 degrees and past the edge of the lens.

It seems to actually only distort from the side. When standing a few feet behind it is not distorted at all.

I wish I could help! We haven't been able to get it installed but other similar film we've used does not have a mirror look from the inside though some will look that way from the outside. The kind we bought is not supposed to--that's the higher rated blocking kind, I believe. Also, it doesn't distort the view very much if at all. Sorry we can't speak to the exact roll we bought but we hope this helps a bit. Godf luck!

Don't know if there's a fix(?). Mine has a very clear picture,better than most I've seen.

There is some "blurriness" around the edges. I do not find it objectionable.

Yes. There definitely is distortion on the magnified side. It's VERY cheaply made. Think of looking in a tin fun house mirror. It takes just the right angle, distance from the mirror & lighting for you to get a clear, normal image. All I can say about this mirror is save your money & get the Conair. Hope this helps.

The viewing angle is not wide enough to be used as a rear view. Well this is my personal opinion but you can still try

I'm not sure what you are asking. I don't know if it would distort. I just thought the smokey cover looked nicer on my black truck than the bright white license plate.

Yes, it is. Perfect when seeing a video or movie and it tilts a little too to get a better screen view.

Yes.................if the outside is very light the picture is very blurred...I took it off and put it on a door facing another direction and it was a little better...

I wouldnt say it ruins it since the screen is still Hd quality and you can tell that. It kind of like wheb you have that thin sheet of plastic on a new electronic. Its hard to tell its there but you can see the refraction of the light from the screen which gives it a textured looo. It honestly doesn't bother me when I watch vids or anyone else that sees vids on it and the benefits from it Trumps any minor loss of clarity
