Review on ๐Ÿ“ท High-Resolution Pi Camera Video Module with 5MP Sensor and Flexible Ribbon Cables - Perfect for Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi Zero by Jay Chenier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Low-cost 3D printer monitoring option

The camera is small and light enough that there are several installation options. The inclusion of different ribbon cables offers options for both smaller and larger 3D printers. The 5 megapixel sensor comes standard with an infinite focal length and your application may require fine tuning. The quality is what you would expect from a cheap sensor and it gets the job done effectively. If you are using this for 3D printing and planning to use the Spaghetti Detective I would recommend the 8MP version of this camera.

Pros
  • CSI Interface: This interface uses a dedicated CSI interface over the CSI bus, a higher-bandwidth channel that transfers pixel data from the camera back to the processor
Cons
  • Quick guide
