A first for the Raspberry Pi ecosystem, there is now an official camera with a fully adjustable focus and aperture. Another first is the C-, CS-mount and an on-device tripod mount. This camera module can output images at a resolution of 4056x3040, default video resolution at 1080P30, and can output RAW12/10/8 COMP8 data files. The C- and CS-mount means all security camera lenses will work with this module. There are truly many types of cameras modules and lenses that are plug-and-play for Raspberry Pi Single Board Computers and that number is steadily increasing. This will be the most up-to-date resource and also show you how to take advantage of all the photography and video settings that are available with this technology.
