I have several of these cameras and they all work very well with a good resolution. This one, however did not work at all. I contacted the Pihut to attempt to obtain an exchange. The first attempt got no response. The second attempt at contact got a quick, polite and helpful reply with instructions on how to return the camera. Which i promptly returned. Now, however, 11 days later I have heard nothing. I understand things may be a bit slower during the current pandemic situation, but thought this should be sorted quicker, or at least confirmation they have received the returned item.

Surprisingly good video quality, great package support (for python anyway).

Takes good pictures and the setup process is fast, you just need to enable the camera on the Raspberry Pi config, reboot and you’re ready to go.

I bought this camera to have a go at making an adapted version of the My Nature Watch device and had a brilliant time learning. I would definitely recommend to anyone with even a passing interest!

Bought for a trailcam project. Very easy to connect to pi zero and picture quality was better than expected.

This was bought to create a CCTV camera using MotioneyeOS. Please note I have not used this device with Raspbian. I am very pleased with the camera module, it has good image quality for the purpose it was bought for and is a really small device. The Camera has capabilities over and above what you seem to be able to achieve with the Pi, but it works surprisingly well. It is a shame the Pi foundation chose to connect the Camera through a fiddly and vulnerable ribbon cable, but it has been that way since the start it seems.
