What do you do if you need to be able to reverse your 4000kg JC to a 2000kg car trailer precisely? What if you want to be able to see the idiot following too close to your trailer that is 10 meters from the JC rear bumper also? These result in a requirement of a camera system to cover nearly 90 degrees of vertical span.
Necessity is the mother of all inventions. I revised my rearview camera and it is now version 2.0. It consisted of two cameras arranged in cross-fire machine gun bunker fashion.

version 2.0 consists of a kangaroo camera - baby in mother's belly
the crossfire arrangement of the two cameras
the two cameras are arranged in cross fire configuration (vertically) - like the WWII German machine gun bunkers along the Western coast; the little camera is secured to the belly of the big camera with pressure sensitive adhesive
the dual camera is quite discrete
the near field view for reversing to the trailer hitch
the far field view for monitoring the traffic behind me
the high top of the James Cook is both a blessing and a curse
