Default Back up camera

Is it possible to adjust the angle of the back up camera? When reversing and using the camera it looks like I’m about to hit the wall. But in reality I’ve got a good amount of distance. I’ve figured it’s the angle the camera is at that makes it appear I’m right up on the wall. I’d like to get closer if possible. Thanks.

The camera is not only used for viewing by the driver, but it's also used with the self-parking feature, and the launch pack for the LS600h says this:

Rear Pre-Crash Safety System: a rear-mounted miniature camera constantly monitors the area around the back of the car. If it detects an imminent collision, the front seat headrests are automatically moved up and forwards to cushion the occupants’ heads and help prevent whiplash injury. The system operates whether the car is moving or stationary.
As such, I wouldn't touch it.
