Default Backup Camera Adjust

This may have been posted here before, but if not, I think I have found something cool! When you put the car in reverse the camera comes on (if equipped) and when its showing you the camera feed, if you hit "DISP" (display button) on your center console, you can adjust the video settings for the picture. Just thought I would share! Images below to explain what I am talking about.

This is cool.
I never thought we can adjust it.

On another note, is there any way we can adjust the camera so we can get a wider angel of the back?
