I have the Lux package (12" screen) and it looks very good. Much better than the camera on my wife's 2022 Audi
i ordered the lux package as well, that makes me happy to see! how is it at night or in rain?

It's dark when I back out of the garage in the AM and the camera is clear. The backup lights aren't great but my brake lights illuminate the area pretty well. Rain and road grime will collect on the rear camera so you'll have to wipe it off once in a while. The 12" display with the 360 camera is great too. The front camera is amazingly clear on the big display

I have seen images of the backup camera resolution from those with the 12" screen and they look good...better than the 8" screen variant.

the bitch of it is, if you take your approach to every part or accessory of the Bronco, you no longer have a $40k vehicle. Somebody somewhere is going to say "my widget is cheap, I can't believe they didn't put a nicer widget in my $40k Bronco".

For people with concerns, like you, there is an upgrade option.
Once again...never said I was concerned about the camera or that I should see everything in glorious 4K resolution or that a something-or-other is cheap. I expect there to be places they "cut" quality for cost savings; not listing examples to avoid sensitivity. The camera on with the 8"/mid-package screen is fine...I stated I was disappointed it was not a little clearer after contributing to OP's inquiry about their cameras resolution.

Yeah, the camera in my Big Bend w/mid doesn't seem quite as sharp as the one I had in my '18 Escape SE, but it does the job.

* Does not meet expectations, but I am old school and don't have a rear view camera on 1989

Not trying to bump the thread, but just wanted to add that my Big Bend with mid package has an awful backup camera in terms of sharpness/crisp picture.

It could be dangerous for seeing a small object, pet/child compared to my 2018 Subaru with a clear image. I would love an OEM plus upgrade or something to dial it in. I'll try to come back and add pictures here shortly.

Since this got bumped, anyone notice their backup camera alignment seems off? I only notice it in 360 view, but it feels like the rear is aimed slightly to the left.

Is there a difference for each of the models?

I agree, the resolution sucks on the Bronco backup camera, although it may vary based on trim level. My wife has an Explorer XLT (also 2021) and the resolution on that camera is much clearer.

Doug Demuro in his Bronco review said that the camera quality in Bronco is one of the best in the market. Either there's something wrong with your lens or it's just how the lower trims are equipped with.
