OH NO IT DOESN'T !
. After getting home tonight and realising when I checked the mirror, my rear facing camera was AWOL. BUGGER. Anyway, when I got out of the car the camera was still tethered by the power cord ( I have now super glued the camera onto the mount). So having had a look at what's on the card I found some great video of sky, trees and lamp posts and sod all else.So just because the picture in the view finder is the right way up doesn't mean it's recording that way, apparently. I did buy a cheaper camera from the US last year and it recorded in "mirror image", so maybe this one has a similar fault?
I'll try mounting the camera the "right" way up and see what happens. I have to say the quality of the image is good.
Tony.
