Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 Wide Angle 12MP

TheRaspberry Pi Camera Module 3 Wide is a compact camera from Raspberry Pi that features a 12-megapixel IMX708 sensor with HDR and phase detection autofocus with a wide-angle lens and an infrared filter.

Camera module 3 can be used to capture Full HD video as well as still images and supports HDR mode up to 3 megapixels. Its operation is fully supported by the libcamera library, including the Camera Module 3's fast autofocus feature, making it easy for beginners to use and offering much for advanced users.

Camera Module 3 is compatible with all Raspberry Pi computers, except for early Raspberry Pi Zero models, which do not have an FPC connector. Later Raspberry Pi Zero models require an FPC adapter, which is sold separately.

The PCB size and mounting holes remain the same as for the Pi Camera Module 2.

The size of the Z is different: Due to its improved optics, the Pi Camera Module 3 is a few millimeters taller than the Pi Camera Module 2.
