A vision system for a vehicle includes a camera disposed at a windshield of the vehicle and having a field of view forward of the vehicle and through the windshield of the vehicle. The camera includes a lens and is electrically connected to circuitry established at a circuit board via a flexible electrical connector. The flexible electrical connector flexes to allow a viewing angle of the camera to differ from a mounting angle of the circuit board. As disposed at the windshield, the circuit board is angled relative to the principal axis of the field of view of the camera.
