A camera monitoring system includes a first mirror replacement camera extending outward from a vehicle. The first mirror replacement camera defines a rearward facing field of view including at least one image feature during at least a first set of operating conditions. The at least one image feature has a fixed position within the field of view during the at least the first set of operating conditions. A camera monitoring system controller is configured to automatically calibrate an orientation of the first mirror replacement camera relative to the vehicle by comparing an expected position of the at least one image feature to an actual position of the at least one image feature while the vehicle is operating under the first set of operating conditions and identifying a shift of camera orientation based on the difference.
