Is it true that a 120 degree viewing angle is better for a small car like a Honda Fit to prevent fisheye?

I just got this professionally installed on a Honda Fit and the camera helps a lot. Before backing up, especially with passengers required a lot of guessing. I paired this camera with a Boyo VTM43TC rear view display.

The answer that I can give you is that I don't see major distortion when looking at the camera. It's a nice clean picture and have been happy with this product.

Yes, with this camara small or big car you will see a lot better. Is not s stock camera but the quality of Boyo with a 12 degrees camera every this is better.

Not necessarily. I have a toyota tacoma 2007 p/u and this is one of the best back up rear view cameras that I have ever owned compared to the pioneer model. Thumbs up!!! I would not trade this camera for any other because I am absolutely sold. :)

I have a Chevy Silverado and it is about 6 feet wide and you can see the image clearly at all angles as long as the screen is in front of you. I've watched what my kids are watching from another vehicle in another lane clearly

I've used it both ways - without the wide angle you see a brighter light farther ahead --- with it, you get a wide swath of light but it doesn't illuminate the road as far ahead.

According to the manufacturer the F1.2 has a field of view of 140° at 420P setting and 112° at the 720P setting. To compare your human field of vision is about 160° fixed. That includes your peripheral vision. Do the math. Now I'll bet your sorry you slept through that geometry class!

Low beams. High beams would be 9005. At least in older Hondas. Your application might differ.

It works fine for normal use but I wanted it more for a weather cam and it doesn't go too high on a horizon shot so I had to modify it to be more at 120 degrees as opposed to 90. I am planning on mounting it upside down to give more of a sky view. Manufacturer said it would be fine to do so. I do wish it had 20x zoom instead of 3x

As long as they are angled down so they don't blind on coming cars or the car in front of you.

There's still a tiny blind spot where a perfectly-placed moped could hide, right alongside the car. But a quick sideways peek fixes this. I could probably eliminate it, but my mirror is already adjusted to the max and angled to boot. One advantage of this mirror is that it works like a normal mirror--for rear-view mirrors like the Wink system, there's a tremendous amount of info, but your brain has to learn how to sort it all out before it becomes useful.

Paired with the wife angle converter the 16 mm is awesome for wide angels. By itself it is wider then the stock by about 15-20 degrees.

I read where the bigger screens in this curve design are better and allows that sweet spot for viewing to not be a major factor. Go for it. Enjoy

I am also looking for additional storage in my Honda Fit. Video says 40" and I measured the rear of the Fit and 40" will not cover up the break lights, but possibly will cover the window and to see out of the back so vision will be restricted. However, it seems to be the best alternative. Did you purchase? Do you have any comments? Thank you

Yes, it's wider angle since it's a 24mm vs. a 35mm lens giving you a wider field of view. Compared to your 35mm f1.8 OSS, it doesn't have OSS.

As others have said, the answer is yes. While you do loose the wide angle effect, you are gaining the "fish eye". I've had a lot of fun with the fish eye lens. and would recommend it.

Yes, It is wider than 120 degrees (I see difference between it and other 120 degree Dash cams I have), I think at least 130 degrees. Records in very nice 1920X1080. For size and money, I think it is the best. I bought three so far, all are same specs, just slightly different firmware. One tanked, destroyed 2 SD cards. The other two have been running like champs are are the permanently mounted dash cams in my car (one in front, one in back).

A fisheye lens will never give a "360" view, but it does work just like any fisheye lens by giving you a nice 180 view.

It has a 35mm equivalent of 24mm. So way less than fisheye. Check the specs for the exact angle in degrees, but fisheye is usually 180 degrees or very close and they usually range in 8-15mm equivalent range from my experience.

I am using two of the cameras on the back of the car mounted on the license plate frame one pointing to the left and the other pointing to the right. This allows me when backing out of a parking space with a SUV parked on either side that is blocking my view to see if any car is approaching. I use two small tv monitors on my center console in fron of my gear shift. I have the cameras and monitors wired for power from the backup lights. The camera angle is pretty wide (about 170 degrees) so i can see reasonably about 100 ft.
