   Title nit: "backup" means a second copy, "back up" is the verb phrase for moving backwards. Verb phrases get hyphenated for clarity when used as adjectives immediately preceding a noun. So this should be "back-up camera", not "backup camera".

      Backup camera is cromulent. Reversing camera is also cromulent.

      A reversing camera is handy for people on one side pond when they take their estate down to the tip to chuck out a load of rubbish.

      Backup cameras are useful for people on the other side of the pond when they take their station wagon to the dump to get rid of some trash.
