Review on πŸ“· High-Resolution Pi Camera Video Module with 5MP Sensor and Flexible Ribbon Cables - Perfect for Pi 4 and Raspberry Pi Zero by Chris Bhatia

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Affordable option for 3D printer monitoring

The camera is small and light enough to be mounted in a variety of ways. 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
  • Focus: 5 megapixel OV5647 sensor with fixed focal length lens
Cons
  • No mold required
