“The Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2.1 has been a great choice for my indoor security camera setup. The compact design made it easy to position discreetly, and it delivers clear video, ensuring I can monitor my space. Setting it up with the Raspberry Pi was straightforward, and I like the flexibility it offers for customization.
It performs well in different lighting conditions, and I like that I can process footage locally without relying on cloud services. Overall, it’s a reliable, affordable, and efficient solution for indoor surveillance.”
“For the money, it's brilliant. Very easy to use if you're on Pi OS. I've used this on both a Pi Zero 2w and Pi 5. Obviously, it works better on the 5, but it is still fantastic on the Zero.”
“Works fine, but I did find that the program I have used before (called "raspistill") now seems to have been replaced by one called "rpicam-still", which can do most of the same things.”
“Does all what I need for my study (Paul Mcwhorter Raspberry course). Later after mastering this entry level camera I will buy best camera from you. Good price!”
“A good camera to start with. Beware that it does not work in the same way with Bullseye as it does with Buster. which means some of the tutorials in the latest PI4/400 guide do not work.”
“Better than I expected, the images are really good. One warning though: if you plan to use it with the browser, you'll have to enable the legacy camera stack in the Interfaces section of `sudo raspi-config` as the new libcamera isn't supported by Chromium yet.”
