Built around a fixed-focus 5-megapixel sensor, it captures stills at 2592×1944 pixels and supports 1080p30 video recording. The included HBV FFC (flat flexible cable) is designed for the Raspberry Pi Zero and Zero W’s smaller CSI connector, enabling a compact, tether-free setup for embedded vision applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eImage Sensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOmnivision OV5647\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eResolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2592 × 1944 (5 megapixels)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVideo Modes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1080p30, 720p60, 640×480p60\/90\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15-pin CSI ribbon cable (HBV FFC included)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLens\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFixed focus, f\/2.9\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable Length\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150 mm (optimized for Pi Zero W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Can Build With This\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTime-lapse camera for plant growth or weather monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIY security camera with motion detection using MotionEyeOS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMicroscope adapter for documenting tiny objects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePortable point-and-shoot with a Pi Zero and battery pack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis module works with any Raspberry Pi board that has a CSI connector, including the Pi 2, 3, 4, Zero, and Zero W. The supplied FFC cable is specifically trimmed for the Zero’s compact layout, but standard Pi models can use it with the correct orientation. It draws power directly from the 3.3V rail and is recognized by Raspberry Pi OS without extra drivers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect the ribbon cable to the CSI port with the blue tab facing the Ethernet\/USB ports on full-size Pi boards, or towards the board edge on the Zero. Ensure the cable is fully inserted and the connector latch is pressed down. No external power or pull-ups are needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing.

If defective on arrival, replace within 7 days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eIs this compatible with Raspberry Pi 4?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, it works with all standard Pi models, but you may need a longer cable (adapter sold separately) if the short FFC doesn't reach comfortably on a Pi 4.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eDoes it work with the Pi Zero W out of the box?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. The included HBV FFC cable is specifically designed for the Zero W’s miniature CSI connector, so no additional adapters are required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails\u003e\u003csummary\u003eCan I use this for night vision?\u003c\/summary\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stock module has an infrared filter and is not sensitive to IR light. For night vision, you can carefully remove the filter (a non-reversible modification) and add an IR illuminator.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"compoden-handoff\" style=\"margin-top:24px;padding:16px;background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #2B4D8F;border-radius:4px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0 0 6px 0;font-weight:600;color:#1A3560;\"\u003e📦 Free Setup Handoff Document Included\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp style=\"margin:0;font-size:0.95em;color:#333;\"\u003eEvery Compoden order includes a free setup handoff document — step-by-step instructions to get your component working within minutes.
