2A Power Supply Highly Recommended
Color:RS MADE IN UK The Raspberry Pi Camera V2 features the same, tiny footprint (25mm x 23mm x 9mm) as the original Pi Camera module, but features an upgraded Sony IMX219 image sensor which has a native resolution of 8 megapixels. The fixed-focus lens can capture 3280 x 2464 pixel images and 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p90 video.
The Raspberry Pi Camera V2 connects to the CSi connector of your Raspberry Pi via a 15cm long flexible ribbon cable. It is plug-and-play compatible latest version of the Raspbian operating system making it perfect for time-lapse photography, recording video, motion detection, and security applications.
This little camera has big muscle in photos or video quality. It makes a great addition to your raspberry pi project. Beware of the ribbon cable though it is very fragile I haven’t broken mine but the potential for younger people in this hobby could definitely have trouble with it.READ MORE
I have to figure out how best to use this. I did a couple of tutorials, and need to automate getting the pics out over wifi so I can see ‘em from the car. Simple matter of software, but hoping I’ll find somebody has already done the work. Pictures are excellent, video is good, too.READ MORE
After the project was done, quickly lost the cable but that is just me being a klutz. Great camera, able to use source code from looking around on the web.READ MORE
Great little camera, only wish it had a longer cord. Using it for camera security and looks good and keeps an eye on the property especially with contractors and the like in the area.READ MORE
Pretty great. You should read the manual and to get it working. Some of the “standard” python commands don’t work but with a little digging everything is cool.READ MORE
Cable included works for Raspberry Pi 2⁄3 but Zero needs special cable for $8.READ MORE
Excellent camera module for the price. I already have put it to use in a personal project and have other ideas in mond for it, such as a security system. It could do with more documentation.READ MORE
Bought the OV5647 before this and upon arrival it was dead. I then spent more hours than I’d like to admit trying to troubleshoot the camera. After a couple of days with no video or still camera shots, I then returned it and got this one. Within minutes I was taking high quality shots of myself and my beloved dog. Was a quick and easy fix.READ MORE
Pics look really impressive. I had some trouble installing the cable into the connector, it didn’t seat right, but re-seating the ribbon cable fixed the “camera not…
Worthless, overly sensitive, poorly designed trash.Don’t bother, buy a real camera designed for your needs & stay far away from this pile.
Arrived DOA. Return underway
Connect this to a Pi with AstroBox software, allows me to monitor my 3d printer wirelessly. It is a great addition to your AstroBox!
Like the product, but they’re very fragile
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH PI ZERO out of the box. The camera works fine with Pi Zero, but a separate adapter ribbon was needed.
Good lens. I would like it comes with a lens cap
Works great after you run dist-upgrade on a Raspberry Pi 2
Works Great !!
