    Vehicle:
    2017 Tacoma OR 4x4 (formerly 2002 OR 4x4, 1995 4x4 4Runner, 1985 4x4 Toy PU) ... and RIP’s (rust in pieces) to a Bronco II 4x4 & S10 Blazer 4x4
    I had a Natika backup camera mounted on my swing gate and it used to work really well when I had a custom shelf back there that also helped to keep it cool by shading it, but ever since I changed the configuration of the gate and took off the shelf, the camera is in full sunlight, gets easily overheated, and then shuts down.

    I’d like to keep the camera and gate setup as is, so I’m curious if anyone has come up with a camera that has better resistance to direct sunlight that has an image at least as good as the Natika when it’s working correctly.
