Default Rear view camera blurry?

Any other S7 owners think the image on the backup camer is a bit fuzzy? It's not as clear as my the one in my wife's Lexus...

It sucks

Image is sub-par, and is delayed (lags) to real time

No way to do full screen view

Probably the most disappointing part of the technology

Are there any fixes on the horizon?

Mine is simply terrible.

I had a Toyota Camry rental car which had a far superior backup camera.

Default Audi refuses to fix backup camera

I've had mine to the service department. There is an advisory from Audi. However, the advisory seems to exist only to protect Audi saying no fix is necessary or available and that function of these (very poor) backup cameras is normal.

Very disappointing on a car at this level.

I share this thread, that the rear view camera of my S7 is blur & unclear. It is important to get a clear image when reversing for sure.
The same applies for the side cameras, which is as important when reversing.

I don't understand how this is okay. I literally reverse and my camera freezes for a second here and there and is super laggy and blurry. I have taken it in 5 times and also got a response one time saying "it's not an issue since all audis have it" wtf!? Is it lemonable? I hate my car simply because of the safety issue of the defective and terrible camera
