Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 NoIR - 12MP 75 Degree Infrared Lens

The Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 NoIR features a 12-megapixel Sony IMX708 sensor, providing a 75-degree field of view. This compact camera is perfect for capturing high-resolution images and videos in both regular and low-light conditions, thanks to its infrared lens. The NoIR version excludes the infrared cut filter, making it ideal for night vision projects and low-light applications.

Supporting HDR mode with up to 3-megapixel output, the camera can capture full HD video and high-quality stills. It also features phase detection autofocus for fast, precise focusing across various lighting environments. The Camera Module 3 NoIR is fully supported by the libcamera library, ensuring seamless integration with Raspberry Pi for both novice and advanced users.

This module is compatible with all Raspberry Pi computers, maintaining the same PCB size and mounting holes as previous models. Its upgraded optics deliver sharper results without requiring additional lenses, making it an easy, out-of-the-box solution for infrared-enabled projects.

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!
