Hi - I took delivery a couple of weeks ago and have noticed that my night vision camera looks a bit different to others I have seen in that it seems to be flat whereas the ones I have seen on Youtube seem to have a convex lens.

I am wondering if I have a new version or am I missing a lens that then provides a wider field of vision?

Sorry, I seem to have got this wrong. The night vision lens is flat. What is the other lens for? I don't have this.

Parking camera.

You can change point of view from convex to concave.

Most people hate it.
I've gotten used to it and using the added field of view to my advantage.


See below.
It's for ACC, PID, Warn/brake assist.

That's actually the forward-looking radar used by adaptive cruise control or Innodrive.

Thanks everyone. I didn't order that so makes sense.
