The Official Raspberry Pi Camera Guide
by Raspberry PiOne of the most popular add-ons for the Raspberry Pi, the official Camera Module – or the new High Quality Camera – turns your favourite single-board computer into a powerful digital camera.
Launched back in 2013, the original Camera Module was succeeded by the higher-spec v2 in April 2016.
The High Quality Camera, due to launch on 30 April 2020, offers Ultra HD image resolution and enables you to attach any standard C- or CS-mount lens.
