ground loop isolator

My backup camera is for the most part very clear but sometimes at night in very low light conditions has fuzz to it. would a ground loop isolator take care of that?

I can't see a ground loop isolator effecting the lighting outside. You might have to trade that backup camera for one with better low-light performance.

Yea, low light and cheap camera = lots of noise. You can replicate it with any cell phone camera as well.

It wasn't a cheap camera it was like 125 or something. It gets good ratings.. what else do you recommend that works in super low light? I have LED reverse lights lol (no light output) I tried HIDs yesterday but they got to warm for my liking and really didnt produce a ton more light. What kind of camera would be best for seeing well at night

lol, paying 125 or 500 bucks does not offer you a better camera, it can still be a POS sensor. You need to buy a camera which is good for low light.

Imo your over reacting, so what if I night there is some noise, it happens with every cars backup system.
