“Great little product, arrived speedily and well packed as always. Nice to give my little computer project some 'eyes'.
Came with the correct cable for the Raspberry Pi 5.
I splurged on a little perspex holder, just to give the camera something to sit on & position, but the ribbon cable is so inflexible that it makes trying to get the camera to sit flat impossible, even with the stand. Can we have a more flexible connecting cable option please? Even a bridging cable between the two current cable terminals,
Short of screwing it to a mini tripod, I can't think of another way to solve this annoying problem.
Oh, and I'd been reading the 'libcamera' commands but they don't seem to be recognised on my Pi 5. A little forum digging suggests that they have moved to a 'rpicam' command structure, so be warned.”
“Worked out of the box when paired with the RPi4 running OctoPi (new camera stack). The included ribbon cable was a little short for my needs, but I had longer ones on hand, plus they're available here and elsewhere quite cheaply.”
