Review on πŸ“· MakerFocus Raspberry Pi Camera Module - 8MP Sensor, Wide Angle 160 Degree FoV, Compatible with Raspberry Pi Camera Board V2, Supports Video Recording and High Resolution Still Pictures by Don Leblanc

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Sharp image but magenta tint and off-center lens.

Seems like a good way to improve my jetson nano's field of view for autonomous driving, but after installing it I encountered 2 problems. Firstly 50% to 70% of the video no matter what I was pointing at had a strong magenta cast, another issue was that the lens appeared to be aligned with the subject but the image was completely skewed to one side. In the sample photo attached, the phone was straight ahead, but it appeared to be on the right side of the image. I will not buy again, I will try another camera.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Interchangeable
