I finally got the opportunity to drive in the rain with 3.5.1. What I noticed is what I believe is a hardware issue: rain sticks to the camera in the corner of the mirror housing and obscures the rear view, which you can see with the turn signals.

Anyone else see this?

I'm wondering if some kind of Rain-X would help water shed off the camera lens.

Yes, I get the same. It looks like a giant drop covering the lens

Certainly that's at least worth a try.
