A first for the Raspberry Pi ecosystem, there is now an official camera with a fully adjustable focus and aperture. Another first is the C-, CS-mount and an on-device tripod mount. This camera module can output images at a resolution of 4056x3040, default video resolution at 1080P30, and can output RAW12/10/8 COMP8 data files. The C- and CS-mount means all security camera lenses will work with this module. There are truly many types of cameras modules and lenses that are plug-and-play for Raspberry Pi Single Board Computers and that number is steadily increasing. This will be the most up-to-date resource and also show you how to take advantage of all the photography and video settings that are available with this technology.

Thanks tons mate 😊!
Thank you for this high quality video!
extremely excellent, thanks for sharing the wealth of knowledge! I deeply appreciate it.
great explanation, thanks!
This was really helpful. Thank you very much.
Glad it was helpful!
You are doing a very good job! I would like to equip my four nesting boxes with Raspberry cameras for 24/7 live streams online. But I'm not sure which camera to use because they're supposed to run day and night. I am thinking of the Arducam HQ Camera Module with 6mm CS Lens for Raspberry Pi, 12.3MP 1/2.3 inch IMX477. What do you think about my considerations and what do I need in addition?
Sounds like a brilliant addition to your nesting boxes project! Defintiely a camera that will let you see in the dark as well as in the daylight would be optimal. Also quality of image coming to you will be of value too. There's a lot variables and choices to decide on.
I and the team can best help you if you come write up a post in our forum 🙂 we're here to help at every step of your project.
Great video , is it possible to use raspberry pi with night vision camera to wire connect it to a small tft screen.
So I can use it als a handheld night vision watching device?
Thank you 🥰
They weren't overselling that "high quality" statement. Looking at the sample images, they do have a lot of nice detail. This would make very nice time lapses for those 3D printing videos, and monitoring prints easier for services like spaghetti detector. What a useful video showcasing the image quality.
Great video! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
Quick question, can this camera take 7 feet tall object at hi res, and what would be the distance between the camera and the object?
Interesting question! You can definitely take Hi Res images at that distance. If you want to see what the camera looks like from 1 metre away check this article here - core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/camera-raspberry-pi/
You can then extrapolate the information your looking for from that 😊
Hello :)
Thank you for the tutorial. At 2.16, at the interfaces the Camera icon does not show for me.
I have connected everything the way it was shown on the video.
Do you have any suggestions why might this be?
I am facing the same issue. How did you solve it
Can someone help me please? The camera doesnt appear in the configurarion menu, and when in console I type what the video saya everything says “comman not found”
same problem. Raspi 4
@@pluronic123 +1
any solution ?
@@bakikahraman7062 not a solution but I connected a raspi camera and it worked after reboot. I didn't need to switch on camera.
I have the same issue with both my pi4 and pi5 can you suggest me any solution? Thanks
Hey dude, this is awesome. You reckon the RPI Pico would handle the HQ Camera module ? I'm thinking if I setup maybe 3 RPI Picos with these modules, then you have a 3 way camera for vlogging or interviews and different camera shots right ? It might be a bit cheaper than having 4 RPI4s on those "big" boards 😀
the pico is not a computer
I love the idea, currently however I have only seen GPIO connected cameras work on the RPI Pico. I will be very impressed when we see a Pico running a HQ camera but I do have all my fingers and toes crossed.
@@Core-Electronics the pico is not a computer. nowhere near an ISP
i would try using the pi zero
im so intressted in a Resp Camera ^^ but i dont have the money now for this, so you build this and just a question, to you think it would work with a Elgato cam link? so i wanna use it as a replacement for High price Camera? would be nice if i could use it in OBS and still can change ISO and more.
I definitely think a Elgato cam link could be used. This person made a sweet Raspberry Pi streaming set-up where an Elgato cam link could easily be dropped into. hackaday.com/2019/09/27/a-raspberry-pi-4-video-streaming-backpack/
@@Core-Electronics i mean it like: the raspberry connected with my pc per elgato camlink, like the respberry should be the Camera
For sure it will work 😊
I'm trying to build a microscope akin to the handheld dino-lite scopes. Can you recommend a lens? I'm having trouble finding info.
My favourite lens to use for that is the Microscope Lens - core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/CE07249
Here is a guide showing off some images captured specifically by this lens when attached to a HQ camera module and a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B - core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi/camera-raspberry-pi/#Micro
It is also how I got the close up images of the pixels on the Pimoroni HAT at 1:23 in the Video - core-electronics.com.au/guides/colour-e-ink-display-raspberry-pi/
Hi, Thank you for such a detailed video... I have raspberry Pi 4 and Raspberry pi 5 and the HQ camera module ... in the configuration/interfaces camera is not showing...can you suggest any fix...thanks
Hey, someone else in the comments had the same issue, they didn't give much detail but said "The problem was solved simply by turning off the camera in the settings 'sudo raspi-config' to (no)"
We also have a forum topic on this video if you need a hand, just give us some information about your setup, and the issue: forum.core-electronics.com.au/t/raspberry-pi-high-quality-camera-first-pictures-and-videos/11017/7
Best of luck!
Is this compatible with Samsung sensors like the ISOCELL GN2 ? 🤔
Interesting - is there a way to record video beyond the 5 second limit?
Hey mate, you can definitely record video longer than the 5 second limit.
For example lets take the terminal command | raspivid -t 8000 -o video.h264 |. By altering the number after -t you can decided how long you want the video in milliseconds, for instance above take a 8 second video.
Also with the new 'Bullseye' Raspberry Pi OS there has also been changes to the cameras terminal commands. If you find the commands here not working, check this article - core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-bullseye-camera-commands.html
Does the '16 mm RPi lens' provide the same quality output? (images/videos)
All the Raspberry Pi supported lenses are excellent, in regard to quality the main aspect that affects it is the camera module used. The high quality camera module has produced the best images I have snapped with a Raspberry Pi.
Does this camera supports raspberry Pi 5
So video streaming with FullHD and 50 fps is possible? Because I read that the pi only supports 30 fps at this resolution. I am going to use this camera to stream videos of birds at my bird feeder.
1080p at 30 fps or 720p at 60 fps or 12MPix at 10 fps are the highest quality/fps that a Raspberry Pi 4 can capture with this HQ camera module. And a Raspberry Pi 4 Model B can output footage at 4K at 30 fps. Hope this helps!
Hey. Do you know is there available or is it possible to have multiple those cameras that take photo same time?
WHat i am thinking about is to build photogrammetry setup
The Raspberry Pi only has one port to accept a camera, it may be possible to find a HAT that allows extra cameras to be attached but firing them simultaneously may be beyond the capabilities of the Pi's hardware
Worth pointing out, on the latest Bullseye OS, the HQ Camera is detected automatically, you don't have to change the system configuration. Also, the camera commands have changed from things like raspistill to libcamera-still.
I believe you can install the legacy commands in a package, but the new commands try to be backward compatible. Still a great video!
damn more info on this comment than in 9 minutes video, thanks man
Can you built ball speed measurement device with the help of this camera?
I love that idea. The Raspberry Pi camera can record at really high FPS (this fellow cranked it to 660FPS th-cam.com/video/m3Bs-yhWZ3M/w-d-xo.html)
You would likely need to have a zebra pattern behind the target ball (proper Mythbusters stuff - th-cam.com/video/qV4xVAYCK8Q/w-d-xo.html) and allow the Raspberry Pi some time after data capturing to calculate speeds. However I have no doubt it is possible 😊
I have also done it with slower moving/larger targets - core-electronics.com.au/guides/detect-speed-raspberry-pi/
Can you show how to create an image taker script with picamera2 and two keys. One from capturing other for closing?
How about how to convert the pi into an ip cam?
Hello, I was wondering could you use to run a camera app on android. So I play darts and the came out with a camera system called gran cam, but they have a app you also can use called gran camera that you can use a old phone. The new gran cam and used a old phone cameras suck and the dont preform. I want to build a better system with a pi and a better camera. Can you help

This is a mighty cool project. This would be an excellent camera for the job. In terms of code that could help you have a look at this - th-cam.com/video/tVe3r6186OA/w-d-xo.html
Can a camera mount be removed to reduce its size or is it permanently a fixed to the device?
Lens and Camera Mount can come apart. The mount on the back of the PCB has two Allen bolts that you could unscrew to remove the black section of the Camera mount. Then you would be left with a bare light sensor (very easy to damage).
anyone try to push the fps limits on this particular camera? I've seen it done in other videos with other modules.
Heyya mate, it is a proper interesting topic. Have a geez at this as people have been testing - forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=314581
Hi! What version OS are you using? I have the same set Raspberry pi4b + Raspberry HQ camera. But my pi 4b doesn't see the camera at all in interface:(
This guide was written for Buster OS. We unfortunately don't have one for the latest Bookworm OS quite yet, but we do have one for Bullseye: th-cam.com/video/uw4jjvufU8Q/w-d-xo.html
Hope this helps!
@@Core-Electronics Thx! The problem was solved simply by turning off the camera in the settings 'sudo raspi-config' to (no)
Is their a case for the rear?
I have linked a good method of mounting the HQ camera and Raspberry Pi Board together. You could also 3D print a really nice custom case if you wanted -
core-electronics.com.au/catalog/product/view/sku/CE07186
is it possible to get access what the camera is currently seeing to be used in facial recognition and stuff like that?
Absolutely mate! And I have a guide come check it here - core-electronics.com.au/guides/face-identify-raspberry-pi/
@@Core-Electronics just what i was looking for, thanks. keep up the great videos!
Ill do my best 😊!
does the module come with this lens or is it a separate product?
Hi, The Raspberry Pi HQ Camera module does not come with a lens. It features a CS mount so you can use the Raspberry Pi official lenses or dive into the world of pre-existing CCTV camera lenses.
Hello, can insetup this camera wirelessly without affecting the quality?
Depends on what you mean wirelessly, if you mean to send the video from the raspberry pi to another device, you could find a good quality way to stream it over the internet. If you mean wirelessly from the camera to the Pi, that might be a bit trickier. The raspberry pi is designed to be portable, so by the time you power the camera and transmit video from it, it might just be easier to put the camera and pi together.
If you want to, post a question on our forums, our staff are a lot more active in answering questions that youtube:
forum.core-electronics.com.au
Just give us a little bit of information about what you are trying to do and your setup.
Hope that helps mate!
raspistill looks like deprecated. returns error ERROR: the system should be configured for the legacy camera stack
Is it possible to make this a USB camera?
Can you add effects to the camera?
You definitely can 😊 Add cool image effects by using the | camera.image_effect | to apply a particular image effect. The image effect options are:
none
negative
solarize
sketch
denoise
emboss
oilpaint

Can you connect the camera module to 2 or more cameras?
Hey mate, your question is a little confusing, but if you are talking about connecting 2 of these cameras to 1 Pi you are out of luck. The Pi 4 and earlier models only have 1 camera connector so if you want more cameras you will need to use a usb camera or webcam. However, the Pi 5 is about to come out which now has 2 camera connectors on it. (Although it has a new connector so you will need to buy an adapter cable but they are relatively cheap)
I hope this answered your questions!
Our 8MP PTZ arducam camera is taking blur images and videos , can you give us a solution for that.
Not a piece of hardware I am closely familiar with. I would double check all the connections and make sure to focus the camera. Focus the camera by running the terminal command to keep the camera displaying what it is showing and rotating the lens (or potentially via the back focus ring).
Hope above helps you!
@@Core-Electronics The preview window is not showing up , the command is running but the preview window is not popping up. Can you help us with that. We are also using the buster OS only.
Best way for me to help would be to have some photos of your hardware. Come make a forum post at Core Electronics with some photos and we'll get you smooth sailing 😊
Bro I wan make camera for astrophotography for my teliscope can I do with this
Yes it most definitely can, have seen a few posts around astrophotography subreddits of people using pi cams with 3d printed mounts. You would need to do a little bit of research on how to do it though. Best of luck!
When I run the raspiestill -t 0 doesn’t pop up anything what should I do?
Likely its due to the new Bullseye Raspberry Pi OS update. Come check here for the new commands - th-cam.com/video/uw4jjvufU8Q/w-d-xo.html
@@Core-Electronics thank you very much
Are there any pi compatible HDR capable cameras

does it work with raspberry pi 2?
Absolutely Just make sure your using the right OS. With the new updates the Terminal Commands are now different, check this guide for that 😊 core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/raspberry-pi-bullseye-camera-commands.html
can you do like a continous recording but saving it to a new file in every 2 minutes? ( just in case if lose power dont corrupt the already recorded video file)
Definitely possible. Come check this thread at the Raspberry Pi Foundation Forums talking about exactly how to set up a system like it - forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=245288
For the life of me I can't get the 16mm lens to fit the pi hq camera with or without adapter

Hi Tim is this camera IR compatible
The Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera has a built-in IR filter to block out infrared, you could theoretically remove the filter but you would probably be better off with a IR specific camera.
@@Core-Electronics is their an IR version of the same camera available in the market？
Unfortunately Raspberry Pi don't manufacture an IR version of this specific camera, they only have the NoIR at the moment, and I'm unaware of any third parties making IR camera modules with interchangeable lenses.
How did you turn the preview off?!
Press on your keyboard the combination | CTRL + C | to close the preview window.
This is great but ummmmm how do I exit the preview?
Hey mate, with the terminal selected hold | CTRL | on your keyboard and then press the | C | button 😊 hope that helps.
@@Core-Electronics thanks. So I have another Pi that I tried raspistill on and it says it's not found. Any idea why? I need a live feed for a senior design project.
You have jumped in at an exciting time for Raspberry Pi, there has just been an update to Raspberry Pi OS (you will have probably noticed the different background picture). This has come with all types of changes but most notably for you a change to the terminal commands for Cameras.
