Maybe, but not the issue. The camera angle really distorts what the umpire is looking at. Actually the camera would be better if they used the camera type that the WNBA used a couple of months ago when an official was calling the game. The camera was over the official's eye and gave a first person view and showed what the official was actually looking at. This is mounted somewhere on the hat and looks nothing like the view we would be seeing while umpiring.

Referee Cam
