Abstract
A method for operating a camera system of a motor vehicle, in which images of an environmental region of the motor vehicle are captured by means of an image sensor of the camera system via an optic device and an image correction function is activated by means of a control unit of the camera system, in which a light fall-off in a boundary region of the images caused by the optic device is compensated for, wherein a current brightness level of the environmental region is captured by means of the control unit and the activation and deactivation of the image correction function are effected depending on the current brightness level.
