Introduction
The camera for Raspberry Pi can be used to take high-definition video, as well as stills photographs. It’s easy to use for beginners, but has plenty to offer advanced users if you’re looking to expand your knowledge. There are lots of examples online of people using it for time-lapse, slow-motion and other video cleverness. You can also use the libraries we bundle with the camera to create unique effects.
If you’re interested in the nitty-gritty, you’ll want to know that the module has a five megapixel fixed-focus camera that supports 1080p30, 720p60 and VGA90 video modes, as well as stills capture. It attaches via a 15cm ribbon cable to the CSI port on the Raspberry Pi. It can be accessed through the MMAL and V4L APIs, and there are numerous third-party libraries built for it, including the Picamera Python library.
The camera module can be very popular in home security applications, and in wildlife camera traps.

Review
Dec 30, 2020
I purchased this for my Anet A8 so I can monitor my 3D prints remotely using Octoprint on my Raspberry Pi 4B - I chose this camera on a recommendation by a friend who is using the same setup. The resolution on this camera is sufficient for my purposes, which are not for close-up inspection of the part being printed, but to be able to tell if/when a print has failed or the printer has malfunctioned. The cable it comes with is a little short, which is fine if your Pi is mounted on the frame.
