Default tilt back up camera

Hi,
I have a feeling that my back up camera is pointing downward more than normal. I see a good portion of the logo "Lexus" on the bumper. I see a bit of skyline as well. My other IS lexus, I see it more normal view with more sky and less bumper. What do you think? Do you see the same? or I need to tilt/adjust my camera? If so, how would I do that? Bring it to the dealer? Can any of us confirm?

What you're seeing is correct. It's wide angle and should even show a curb as it passes under the fender. It's so you can determine how close you are to something behind you and below the back glass.
