The picture quality is pretty good. I'm deducting a star because of the description.

Works with both Raspbian Jessie and Stretch on Pi Zero W. You need a higher output USB power adapter; I use 2A one. The picture quality is pretty good. I'm taking off a star because the description doesn't say "FPC cable" (which is what I assumed for the gold cable picture) and even though the cable was included, the cable didn't work. After switching to a Pi Zero v1.3 (Adafruit 3157) camera cable it started working. It would save me time if it didn't come with a cable.

Pros
