That’s not how the actual images look if you were just looking at the recording made by one of the cameras. I’m not sure why everyone keeps suggesting it, that’s not an accurate view of what the actual cameras see. I am not saying the camera angles aren’t bad for sentry mode, I’m just saying this “test” is pointless to determine that.
I understand that the image that is presented is “processed”, but this test will give a reasonable approximation of the field of view of the cameras. I don’t think Ford is cropping anything out of the imagery during processing - it’s just being distorted in different ways.

I wish people would stop trying to compare the Mach-E to a Tesla.......If you want the features that Tesla offers then buy the god damn Tesla.
Seems like there are three trains of thought fueling these discussions.

1. Some people notice that the Model Y has 8 cameras and a way to record video and download those recordings. The Mach-E has 5-6 cameras. So can it do the same? It's a reasonable question and we get some reasonable discussion each time it comes up. (Dozens of times now on this forum.) I think this is where the OP comes in. Totally reasonable -- other than not searching for existing topics.

2. Some folks want the best pieces of all vehicles all mixed together into a single vehicle and they don't want to hear or think about the financial or time-to-market costs required to grant them the nirvana they desire.

3. Some of the commenters are tweens or trolls or both. We don't have a lot of T-Stans on this forum. We had quite a few trolls here a few years ago but now it's really died down, thankfully. There is at least one remaining, who tries to remain subtle (until you look through his post and reactions history) and he or she is in fact participating in this very thread.

OK guys, until "Then" how about helping the OP out instead of deriding them? Forums don't have to be so nasty do they?

So, OP, the answer is (obviously no LOL) but here is the solution I came up with:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BVRGFKQH?ie=UTF8&psc=1

$200 & $50 to install (no way I am going to DIY a EV....I have NO clue LOL)

Be Happy, Be Well! :)

I'd be happy to just be able to see all cameras on demand when I want, i.e. sitting at a light to be able to see the back camera without switching to reverse, which 'would' scare people normally, but due to the Mustang placement of the backup light, people don't see it when they are behind you anyway 🤣
