The speed of light > the speed of the backup camera.
Try this test, turn on your digital camera, and watch TV via the display.
You will notice a lag. Also, the camera could possibly stick.
For these reasons alone I think until technology is fast enough and tested so it had almost ZERO lag from the time the video camera takes the pic and it appears on the screen I would stick with the mirror. I am not saying it can't be done, but I would want something designed for that use.
As for backing up at 1-5 mph, I think the camera works fine. Just don't think I would trust it at 70 mph.
