is it reverse/rear camera in doha are worth it?

that a good price, grab it !!! but make sure that it will be installed by professionals so no wire will be outside and they won't destroy your car interiors to run the wiring.

actually someone sell it to me by black market, for QAR 300 with 7 inch mirror dvd to attached on the stock mirror, i dont mind on dvd or whatsoever, i just mind the camera for better movement during parking

@paulbanez Try and keep the lens away from the gaze of the sun as uv rays can harm the lens, reverse cameras usually are good at repealing water. But if your going to have the car washed with pressure washer. I would suggest to avoid water ingress a plastic sandwich bag with rubber bands as a precaution.

@paulobanz Depends on camera sensor type, CCD image sensor are do not perform well low light condition's even with lights from the number plate. A CMOS image sensor with IR LED's are the best to go for.

ohhhh thats the reason why cameras are installed on plate numbers, just question, are they safe to install them on plate number considering hot weather and for car wash? i worried about the water

@ gasoline that why they install camera next to the plate number,

Ask about low light conditions and see if he vendor can do test before fitting. Some cameras come with LED's but not all are as good in low light.

You are welcome Paul .............................................

thanks for all the positive comments, ill gotta take one, yeah, back bumper is a blind spot, thanks to all

Try to get the reverse camera and the sensors, as both together are more useful than just one on its own.

Get it fixed today if you 've nowhere to spend a few hundred Riyals & a few hours to spare .....

you don't need it until you hit something or the car behind you (could be a big rock or anything else), or you hit a baby running behind your car (happened many time in qatar specially in the malls), anyway all new cars have this option, even low end car, some cars here have auto parking option, as long the technology can assist you why not take advantage on it

Personally i would not take advice from someone who drives a Pink Jeep Wranger with three spoke wheels from the 90's, that's my advice. Cameras come in handy for the tight spaces, especially if you have big SUV. Lets not forget logically speaking you have blind spot in the center of the bumper so it helps.

If a person knows driving, he would not be needing one. The rear-view camera is a new invention which was not here around 5 years back. Most sedans do not have this facility available.

wild turkey, in my case i cant see nothing even you turn completely, i have useless mirror and my car is over 5 meters :) it s an option in all cars, but a mandatory option if you are not able to see the limit of your car, see the point.

thanks to all

Generally speaking, it's for old women and men who cannot turn their heads anymore due to stiff necks.

Mandatory and option contradict each other. Either it is mandatory, then it's a must, or it's an option, then it's up to you if you want it or not.

it s a mandatory option, and better than sensor, of course it worth if you have a long car

you will only need the rear camera for parking ... If you have difficulties in parking like narrow parking space or a small parking slot then it is useful... other than that no use... because in qatar reverse gear for only parking .....
