Hi Thanks for reply but not totally understood. I have a power cable attached to camera, live and ground, which connects to reversing light terminals?
This provides power when reverse engaged, why would I require another 12v feed?

Or would it be required, as in some vehicles, BMW's in particular, where there is insufficient power at reverse terminals so they would perhaps require trigger cable to provide necessary 12v or fit a relay???
