This is confirmed not just by gun camera footage, but also by anecdotal evidence from a LW veteran who flew the FW-190 in combat.

The comments made by the pilot were with reference to the FW190 A-8 and the Mk108 wing canons.
If he was caught low on return to base he would empty (fire) the wing Mk108's in case of enemy attack from behind and above.
