Are objects much closer than they appear?

I no longer have the vehicle on which this camera was installed, but my recollection is objects appear as normal size. The camera was mounted near the roof dripline of a Chevy Express van. From that vantage, it gave me a good view of the closed garage door as I backed into my yard. Although the camera doesn't display distance marks, with a little practice you can pretty well judge how close you are to things.

I just went out and looked at mine and unfortunately, the minimum distance looks to be more like an inch, or a little less.

Yes you can see them slightly from up close.The headrests are separateThank you

In our line of work we are working on small die parts at close range. Roughly six inches away from the actual lens. Closer for the smaller lens. Roughly 2''... Everyone's eye muscles are different though.

Focus wise it can be as close as less than 6 feet for my eyes (I think it depends on viewer's eyesight). However, the real problem is the images from two eyes don't over lap very well when the object is this close. If you want to observe something that close, Pentax Papilio is designed for that purpose and has very good reputation.

Depends on what you mean by "observe." At the highest magnification, a one millimeter object takes up almost the entire field. You could see the parts of a fruitfly, or tick, but I doubt that you could see a protozoa or amoeba or other small creature. I think the 400 power claim is a bit of a stretch. Actually, a lot.

Yes, I noticed that as well. But I relied on the picture being more accurate. They were roughly 7" across. Sorry don't remember exactly, but they were identical to mine.

The answer is YES, this feature is poorly implemented & almost impossible to see /use, I use a tape measure to set the distance.

Yes it does. It looks nice and gives you a good sense of how far away an object is especially if you test it out and gauge distance yourself first. Hope this helps.

They are very close to what you see is what you get. They come up about 10-15% smaller than what you are seeing through the viewfinder. (depending on the amount of zoom you are using when shooting). I've had mine for over a year now and still enjoying it.

You must be very close to the object, like almost touching it to be in focus.

The resolution of the reflection is mediocre (roughened by inconsistencies in the paper) certainly not as a good as a mirror, but better than baking quality aluminum foil. When my head is about a foot away, I can see facial features. If it is 6 inches away, I would say someone could probably guess the reflection was mine.

Yes, but the shutter speed isn't very fast. If something moves past it quickly it misses it.

It is normal. all land objects will appear like that. You should be good for looking at space objects.

If close enough, it will alert to metallic presence. Not the best choice thou for searching larger areas, as you must be very close to the object you're searching for.

Distortion is more prominent in the camera-object distance. minimum distortion beyond 12 feet

it has some fibers sticking out, but only visible from a very close distance.
