Review on 📸 High-Speed Monochrome Global Shutter Raspberry Pi Camera OV9281 - 453fps External Trigger Stream Mode with M12 NO IR Filter Lens FOV90 for Rasp Pi 4B 3B+ 3B 3A+ CM3+ CM3 Pi Zero W by Jason Morrison

Good picture but not plug'n'play

It was hard to run with Pi-Zero. The instructions provided do not work. It works for me with ffmpeg, but I'm not sure if it outputs full quality. Visible streaks on lightly washed walls. Focus control is very loose. However, the images look pretty good when I think it works. Note: Pi-Zero requires a different camera cable. Raw video on my rig is 900MB/min so be prepared - I use an inexpensive SSD to store the video stream. A cheap SD card won't last long. I have not contacted support yet and will update this review if necessary. I suspect they will tell me to reset my kernel so I can use their proprietary driver, which I try to avoid.

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I don't remember
