I think this is one area where paying more for brand name appliances isn’t likely to get you extra value. So much so that I don’t know of any Brand names for cameras or monitors. However Sony & Sharp sensors are good. If not keen on ebay which I would consider the best bet particularly for a reversing only camera the link that BillsGU came with his recommendation & looks worthwhile. If you go CCD with a ⅓” sensor you should be good. A touch screen will likely be less prone to vibration damage over time.
Buying a complete set up (Camera/cable/monitor) may save any hassle with ensuring you have compatible connectors but most sellers will have the right cables if you buy components separately. More often the extra cost for a complete set up over buying separates is just for the convenience factor.
Oh yes, I don’t think this has been mentioned yet ....... everyone I know who has bought wireless camera set ups have been disappointed with them. Wired, although taking a bit more installation effort are more reliable.
