Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 - 12MP 120 Degree Wide Angle Lens

The Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 Wide features a 12-megapixel Sony IMX708 sensor with a 120-degree wide-angle lens, offering a broader field of view for capturing expansive scenes. This compact camera is ideal for high-resolution images and videos, perfect for general photography, landscape shots, and wider applications. With its advanced optics, the Camera Module 3 Wide ensures clear and sharp visuals.

This camera supports HDR mode with up to 3-megapixel output and can capture full HD video. Its phase detection autofocus provides fast and accurate focusing, making it suitable for various lighting conditions. Fully supported by the libcamera library, the Camera Module 3 Wide is easy to integrate into Raspberry Pi projects, catering to both beginners and experienced users.

The Camera Module 3 Wide is compatible with all Raspberry Pi computers and shares the same PCB size and mounting holes as previous versions. It provides enhanced optics and a wider field of view without the need for additional lenses, making it an excellent out-of-the-box solution for capturing expansive imagery.

Comes with a 200mm long flexible cable for connecting to a Raspberry Pi computer, if it's too short/long we have a range of Raspberry Pi Camera Cables in various lengths, you can use here.

To use with a Pi Zero, you will need an adapter cable, which we stock here!
