Kenwood CMOS-740HD
Andrew from Atlanta, GA on 2/20/2021
Excellent video quality on my Kenwood DMX957XR. Unfortunately, Crutchfield wasn't able to help me find my Reverse wire and I can't get the parking guidelines to work or have it come on automatically when reversing, but that's more of a function of a DIYer.
Pros: HDR quality Compatibility with DMX957XR
Cons: Difficult to connect to Reverse for some non-experts

Would be great if it was compatible with my 800 dollar kenwood head unit. But apparently the 800 dollar head unit cant function with the hd camera.

Check compatibility, very finnicky
Crutchfield customer from Palmetto, FL on 1/3/2021
Not compatible with my Kenwood DDX9906DX head unit I received for Christmas, check to see if it is compatible with your unit prior to purchase. Need to obtain a RMA.
Pros: HD output
Cons: Wont work with most head units

Great image day or night!
BatKitty from California on 10/21/2020
This was installed onto 2017 Jeep Wrangler JK with the Kenwood DNR1007XR and it looks AMAZING! Day and night the resolution is incredible with the 1280x720 resolution screen. Without wanting to mount to the spare tire carrier (going to be removing it and relocating the camera to the delete kit once installed) we used a rubberized hitch cover and mounted it there for the time being so that it would have a central location for the best usability. I'm glad we chose to spend a little extra for the great image quality!
Pros: Great image, works well at night, easy install
Cons: Limited mounting options for a Jeep

Kenwood CMOS-740HD
Crutchfield customer from FALLBROOK, CA on 9/22/2020
Nice backup camera, good resolution and low light visibility. Seems to be well built, was paired with the Kenwood Excelon DMX957XR radio. Wide field of view, and there are adjustable distance markers that are adjustable in the radio view screen. Slightly grainy picture, although it probably doesn't matter. Wanted to keep most of the components Kenwood from a comparability point of view. The camera power was wired into the accessory power so camera is always on when the key is in, the camera view is triggered by the radio and the radio backup trigger was tied to the backup lights wire connection under the dash. There is no tail light connection in the camera cabling at the back of the vehicle. Four stars because of cost.
Pros: Very good picture quality, good low level brightness with wide field of view, seems to be well built and nice (durable) cabling.
Cons: Cost, not quite as nice (picture quality and distance markers) as some OEM camera systems I have seen in other cars.

Beautiful HD Backup-Cam
Crutchfield customer from Carmel, IN on 7/13/2020
I paired this with the Kenwood Excelon DMX957XR. The picture quality is fantastic. Installation was difficult, but not because of anything that Kenwood could have improved. It was just challenging fishing the wire from the dash to the trunk. That will be true with any wired backup camera. The only thing to know is that the receiver doesn't default to automatically turning on the backup cam when backing up. It is an easy setting to change, but strange that it isn't the default.
