  • SEE PRECISELY: Precise manual focus control with UP and DOWN keys on the keyboard to handcraft your pixel accuracy and optimal clarity on a Pi camera for machine vision, object recognition and more
  • SEE NATURALLY: 5MP OV5647 sensor camera module, same form factor and same mounting holes for your drop-in replacements, works natively compatible with the Raspberry Pi. Support OS like Raspbian, MotionEye, Kali, Ubuntu, and More

  • Nice camera and stand!
This seller was very nice and took care of my issue once one had arose! The camera works as described and the little stand is a nice touch once you figure out how to get it together! Just remember don't forget your ribbon cable if you are going to be using this with the Raspberry Pi 5!

  • Looks nice
UPDATE: Ummmmm.... yeah..... Turns out I had *TWO* bad cables on my Pis. Once I replaced those with the ones that came with the cams (too short for my purpose), they work just fine. And they focus too! I'll just keep the one I was gonna return. :) ORIGINAL (BAD) REVIEW: But I can't get my RPi 4 to detect it. The classic RPi camera is detected and works just fine. Tech support for ArduCAM is non-existent, and there's no response on ArduCAM forums for my question about what may be wrong. Again, vcgencmd detects the RPi camera, but not this ArduCAM. ANd I have three ArduCAMs currently but none are detected. I tried them on one RPi3 and two RPi 4s, running Raspbian Buster. Guess I'll end up returning them. ... show more

  • Had to hookup
Took several failed attempts very confusing and limited instructions. But once got going works great

  • Nice Product
I used this camera for one of my research and learning projects. As described the camera works perfect, reasonably easy to assemble and operate with a raspberry. The very nature of the product demands the user to be a bit technical. The autofocus script example from the codebase works fine without issues for me. I would recommend it for anyone who is looking for a good quality camera. Two opportunity areas for the manufacturer i would quote 1. The camera case assembly is a bit tricky. Maybe a future version will improve the design. 2. The fact that it needs technical knowledge for operation. Example : python knowledge. I dont think this is a big minus - just a minor callout. ... show more

  • Great Picture
Camera has a great picture for only 5 MP. Hooked it up to a Raspberry PI 3 and with just a few lines of code in Python my face was filling the screen. Picture was clear and I could see very small details in the picture. Great camera for only $15 dollars. The only downside is it came with some small plastic pieces that I think are a stand but there were no instructions for them or nuts and bolts. I plan to use velcro to attach it to my monitor so the case issue was really a non issue. ... show more

  • Don't waste your time
Listing is misleading, if not an outright lie. This camera does not have autofocus capabilities. It does have a motorized focus, which you have to set through a python application and make sure to leave the app running or you will lose your focus as soon as it closes. Customer service is no help. They told me to install a third party plugin (Arducam Focus for Octoprint), which seems really silly to depend on in the first place, but aside from that it also does not work. I wish I could comment on the actual quality of the images, but without being able to focus, I can't. Don't waste your time and money on it. Would rate this zero stars, but Amazon doesn't allow that. ... show more

  • Pain
Pain to integrate into my system, turns out picture quality is not the best. Auto focus refused to work, better off buying pi brand cameras

  • Better than the official Raspberry Pi V2 camera
I like this camera so much better than the official Raspberry Pi V2 camera! The white balance adjusts automatically (in contrast to the official V2, which has pinkish tint in many environments). There is focus control, but it requires some software (simple code that works over I2C). This is more convenient than mechanical control of the V2, which is not always possible to do if the camera is in a case. There is no autofocus, though, but it is fine for my application (OctoPi). And finally, it makes much more sense for the price. ... show more
