Compatible with the smaller CSI connector on the Raspberry Pi Zero, this compact NoIR camera module offers an impressive 16MP via its Sony IMX519 sensor offering a pixel resolution of 4656 x 3496, twice as high as the v2 camera and 40% higher than the HQ camera!
Whilst our 5MP ZeroCam NoIR is ideal for those wanting to undertake night photography on a budget, if you're looking for more megapixels for your compact Pi Zero project, this is just the job!
This camera module uses a Sony IMX519 sensor with an F/1.75 80° FOV lens, capable of 1080p@30FPS or 720@60FPS video. The camera has no IR filter, meaning it's great for low-light night photography with IR LED light flooding onto the target.
Please make sure you are running a recent version of Raspberry Pi OS (January 28th 2022 or later releases, Debian version:11(Bullseye)) and using the libcamera library. Driver installation is required - please see the user manual for more information.
