Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, 12MP IMX708 75°(D) Autofocus Pi Camera V3, 15-22pin FFC Cable

ArduCAM makes some truly excellent products—reliable, innovative, and perfect for embedded vision projects. I’ve used several of their camera modules, and they’ve consistently performed well beyond expectations.Recently, I ran into an issue and got tired of waiting around for answers on online forums. So, I looked up their service phone number (which, honestly, should be much easier to find on their website) and gave them a call.I’m really glad I did. The representative I spoke with was super nice, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. They took the time to understand my problem and walked me through a solution that actually worked. It was such a relief to finally get the support I needed, especially after feeling stuck.If you’re using ArduCAM products and ever need help, I highly recommend calling them directly. Just be prepared to dig around a bit for that phone number—it’s worth it.

At the same price point as the RPI V3 camera, Arducam's IMX708 is a no-brainer as you get the same functionality as the official RPI module, with two additional MIPI lanes. The extra two MIPI lanes allow you to achieve higher frame rates when compared to the RPI module, as you have more bandwidth to push camera data through. In my testing, I've successfully pushed the frame rate at max resolution up to 45fps on the Pi5 with some overclocking fun, while normal operation sits at 30fps!This module is plug and play and comes with both a 22->15pin cable and a 22->22pin cable, allowing it to work with all Pi models!

The media could not be loaded. I’ve hooked up the camera to my Raspberry Pi 4b running Octoprint. Initially I downloaded the version of OctoPi that uses the old camera stack (This camera needs the new one). However, once I figured out the problem and installed the version with the new camera stack, the camera worked perfectly and looked great. After some fine tuning of Octoprint’s camera settings and improving the rooms lighting, I was able to capture some beautiful timelapse’s! However, make sure the included cable is long enough for you — I needed a longer cable for my setup than the included one. However, I went and bought one of Arducam’s longer cables and it worked great.

Es un buen producto con una buena resolución.

Very hard to get it to do anything. Poor instructions. I only got 1 out of 4 to actually show an image, but it took lots of backflips to get there and it wasn’t the supplied instructions that got it working. I had to dig through several forums and try many examples before one finally worked, by accident.

I use this camera for a fun little side project, detecting hand gestures, and performing actions through the raspberry pie based on those gestures. the quality of image is probably comparable to like a iPhone seven or eight but keep in mind that they're just images and there isn't any magic settings prebuilt in when you take a picture with it like there is with an iPhone. something like that would have to be done processing all all fun for little projects super lightweight and a bit fragile, but there are several cases online, you can mount this too.

Just installed camera module 3 on my raspberry pi 4 tonight it's working great. Youtube videos helped. Upgraded OS to bookworm v12 yesterday, just needed edit 2 lines in config.txt. Have used raspberry pi 4 a bit in past - first time with camera. Took a test photo and viewed in image viewer. I plan to write Python take photo for driveway alert email. Had tried ESP32 5MP camera. Camera module 3 color and photo detail are much better. Very happy I chose this camera.

I originally was using a Raspi fixed cam but the image quality was not all that great Picked this up and it made a big difference to the pic quality and it showed. I use this in a special event photobooth using a Raspi touch screen and LED lighting and everyone had a blast using this
