CX5 reversing camera view is now fisheye - HELP
 
My CX5 (2014) reversing image used to be the whole screen but then the battery went flat, now it's a fish eye image. The battery got changed and the system reset by Mazda service but the fish eye image still exists. Anyone know how to fix it. :confused:

With the car in reverse (camera activated) tap on the 'soft button' in the upper left of the screen. There are some adjustments available there.

no luck on image quality
 
thanks Conrad 16.5 but it seems I have been in this area. Accessible when in reverse by pressing the [setup] button on the CD player. I gives access to Tint, Colour etc. not adjustment to camera. The Mazda service team had a look at the camera view and don't believe that I had a full screen image as other cars they looked at had an image same as I have now. :confused:

I have a 16.5 now I don't have the same model anymore but used to have a CX5 with the same backup camera you had and as I recall there was just a button on the display for mine to toggle between the two views. If I'm recalling correctly it wasn't in a menu, just on the screen while in reverse. I remember switching between the two reverse views a bunch to compare them and how much more I could see with fisheye but how how much longer it took me to pick out what was happening at the edges of what I was seeing, etc... Any obvious on screen buttons while in reverse?

Thanks thadjudkins, tried my reversing view and nothing there or in the setup menu while reversing (with brake on).
From memory I was able to change numerous settings on a security video camera but accessing that was by shorting something while applying power. Doing something like that would probably set the car on fire.
