I do not know why this is such a problem for BMW. I have had several Toyota SUV, Lexus SUV's and currently own a Honda Pilot all which have had excellent backup cameras. The Pilot even shows up in color with excellent clarity. The technlology exists. It is amazing to me that BMW does not have access to a good quality camera and that they elect to do nothiing about the coplaints. They should have held off on this option until they got it right.
