Review: This sounds like a good deal..... No support what so ever can really be found! After an entire day of trying to get this to work, I am still left with a fuzzy non focusing camera, missing and misplaced libraires. I am going to give it another full day worth of attempts.... I am pretty sure I am going to have to recode(make my own) everything in order to use at all. Phew super big let down! spent I bunch of money on this one too. Review: Für den Raspberry Pi ist die Kamera perfekt. Die Einrichtung ist recht simpel und elektronisches Fachwissen ist auch nicht notwendig. Einziger Nachteil ist, dass die Kamera nicht mit einer Jetson betrieben werden kann. Das ist aber auch so beschrieben. Geht also klar. ## Features - 16 Million Pixels Compatible with All Raspberry Pies: Arducam is designed as a camera for Raspberry Pi and has a 16 megapixel IMX519 sensor.

Or is this just an auto-focus that cannot be controlled?** A: The focus can be manually controlled and, as I recall, the driver package contains some scripts and examples to demonstrate the control API. Since no extra cables are needed, I assume it's just using the CSI cable's standard control channel (I2C I believe) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Review *by T***N on May 4, 2025* This sounds like a good deal.....
