Don't waste your time

The list is misleading if not outright wrong. This camera does not have an auto focus function. It has motorized focus that you must set through the Python app, and be sure to keep the app running or you'll lose focus as soon as it closes. support is not helpful. They told me to install a third party plugin (Arducam Focus for Octoprint) which is very stupid to rely on but other than that it doesn't work either. I'd love to comment on the actual quality of the images, but without being able to focus I can't. Don't waste your time and money on this. Would rate it zero stars but Revain doesn't allow that.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Vulgarity
