Mounting Reolink Trackmix in rain

Hi everyone,

I'm in the process of setting up my Reolink security system, and at the back of my house I really want to place this camera here. It has perfect view of my shed. The problem is that I think rain will hit it and in the installation guide it said to try to avoid rain hitting the lens. The entire back way has no eaves so there is zero protection anywhere else that can point at my shed.

How important is this rule? Should I build out a better mounting solution about 50mm back?

The photo is where I would like to keep it.

Thanks
