## Description

The Arducam for Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera is the latest camera board from Raspberry Pi Foundation. It adopts the IMX477R sensor, and requires a C- or CS-mount lens to work. It is compatible with Raspberry Pi series boards, offers higher resolution (12.3MP) and higher sensitivity (nearly 50% greater area per pixel for improved low-light performance) than the existing Camera Module V2.

Review: le logicielle libcamera pour IMX477 qu'on dois utiliser pour Raspberry Pi est instable, pour prendre quelque photo c'est OK, mais prendre plusieurs sans arrêt ou une longe vidéo: le logicielle fige ou plante (intermittences; minute ou plusieurs heures), probablement le concepteur de libcamera vas un jours corriger le problème.
Review: When I got this HiQ camera it would not work though I tried it with several different pi boards. I gave up and gave it a bad review. Fast forward, the seller contacted me and showed me the error of my ways, gave me the magic settings you have to make in a config file. After that the camera connected and works fine. If you buy this, be aware that it is not plug and play like a regular picam. You must change settings. If you have issues the seller will help you resolve them.

*by P***5 on 13 April 2024*

Connected to a Raspberry Pi 3b+ and a 4b fresh install of raspberry OS bookworm.. Didn't work on either device.. double checked to make sure that the ribbon cable was correctly installed, and libcamera kept on saying *** no cameras available *** Per the product description this camera should have worked right out of the box.. Yeah, Sorry, but that a Big NO.. what a POS
