Clarify please if and how the rear-facing camera image can be viewed on the front screen. How easy?

Hi. The display screen on the back of the front camera can be switched between a split screen view of front and rear view or just front or just rear. A few clicks to determine which view you prefer. I leave it on split screen.

It is a split screen with the front view at the top of the screen, bottom view below. Very clear works well.

You can see examples if you go on youtube. People have uploaded very good video. Its a split screen. Front view on top and rear on the bottom. It looks great and the video quality is outstanding. FYI, the programs needed for the camera only work with Microsoft computers, not Apple. Also, at a minimum, even if you couldn't use the program available ( to set the date/time, play with the video, etc.), the video files are not compatible. The files are AVI files and Apple's new updated software doesn't recognize it. Other than that, its a very good device.

I don't know, I haven't seen or tried that feature, but I'll check. I do have to say the camera has exceeded my expectations. The picture is crystal clear. I hardwired the rear of my 5th wheel and made a quick disconnect to my truck where I tie in the trailer connecter and everything works flawlessly. The only negative is that the angle of the rear camera required me to turn it upside down - the monitor allows you to reverse the image, but the text on the screen is reverse also, but it doesn't affect the ability to back up.

It has a rear facing camera. It happens when I receive a text with pictures attached .

I've got the opposite problem. I placed mine in the rear, but the image is NOT reversed. Wish I could trade cameras. I didn't notice this until it was installed in my rear bumper.

You can get decent quality pics from the rear facing camera. It has several settings for adjusting resolution, shooting mode, exposure, etc. You'll want to change the storage to the external sd card otherwise you'll run out of space quickly. The flash can be overly bright and can wash out your subject if you're too close. I like the panoramic shooting mode. I find pictures taken with the zoom are less detailed. The front facing camera produces good quality pics. I haven't used it with any chat apps like Skype so I can't comment on that. Video mode works well too.

It's like a web cam. You can only take a photo of yourself. Not sure if that means front or rear.

It has two, front and back facing. Front facing has higher resolution for photos and video, back is for Skype, etc.

There is an opening for the home button and the speaker just below the front camera. The front camera is covered by the glass. Not being a "selfie" kind of guy, I couldn't say if it degrades the image quality. I did take a test photo with it and despite the subject matter, the photo looked sufficient. I've had it on my 5s for about 2 weeks and wish this had been available years ago. I really like it.

If you're using it in your car to display the backing up camera, then the image will be backwards by default and I don't believe it can be changed.

Yes, it formats and adjusts itself whether its front facing or rear facing. I have one similar and it works just like the iPhone would with its front facing and rear facing cameras. I hope this helps.

the screen on the back of the camera IS your view finder. It does not have the small window view finder that the old film type cameras had

Sure. You just need to install the Foscam software and flip the image. Very simple to do.

it has a front facing camera...in theory it could be used to record video with an app of some sort, though i haven't used it for that purpose as of yet.

Yes. This is the camera only. You'll need some means of displaying what the camera sees.

I actually have it installed facing froward to use as a parking aid and the image is not reversed. Unfortunately, the image can't be reversed on this camera but for the price I was OK with it.

There is a screen on the back and if you flip it around to take a "selfie" there is a screen on the front of the camera so you can see what you are taking a "selfie" of, hence dual screen. :)
