Ill have to try moving it to be more of a MONITOR vice a MIRROR. That is a good suggestion as I was keeping it in a position where I could flip it off and on without moving it (positioned so mirror would work).

Maybe turning it toward me so I am looking more directly into it will help.

For me the angle of the mirror made a big difference turning it more towards you.

Was disorienting for the first couple days for sure. As others have said, my natural inclination was to focus through the mirror as of looking at a natural reflection like I have been used to after all my years of driving. But after awhile and realizing to look at it as a screen, it has become more natural to look at it without getting dizzy. That being said, the actual mirror is not as bad as I thought it would be especially with the side mirrors set correctly. I do however keep it on the camera majority of the time.

I agree with ya'! Kind of sucks, you'd think it would be the same angles. Other than that, I don't have a problem with the mirror. It does take a while to get use to the camera mirror. But I think you can see more in the back with the camera than with the plain mirror.
