It's designed for night vision applications, wildlife monitoring, security systems, and low-light photography when paired with IR illumination. Built on the Sony IMX219 sensor, it delivers sharp stills at 3280x2464 and smooth video up to 1080p30.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\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\u003eSensor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSony IMX219 8-megapixel\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStill Resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3280 × 2464 pixels\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVideo Modes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1080p30, 720p60, VGA90\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIR Filter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNone (sensitive to IR light)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCSI-2 (15-pin ribbon cable)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded Cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150mm ribbon cable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat You Can Build With This\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNight vision surveillance camera with IR LEDs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWildlife trail camera that captures animals in the dark\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLow-light time-lapse photography setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/products\/kit-smart-doorbell-camera-kit-with-raspberry-pi-4-plus-camera\"\u003eInfrared doorbell or peephole camera\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with all Raspberry Pi boards featuring the CSI connector, including Raspberry Pi 5, 4, 3, 2, and Zero (Zero requires a separate adapter cable). Works with standard Raspbian and libcamera software. Operates on 3.3V supplied by the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWiring Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConnect the ribbon cable with contacts facing the HDMI port. Ensure the cable is fully inserted and the connector clamp is locked. For IR illumination, you'll need external IR LEDs; the camera has no built-in LED driver, so wire LEDs with a current-limiting resistor to a separate power source or GPIO with transistor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from Compoden\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery component is sourced from verified suppliers and tested for compatibility before listing.
