This wide angle camera module for the Raspberry Pi uses the same IMX708 sensor and footprint as the official Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, however Arducan has given it a bit of a remix with USB-C UVC connection, a wide angle fixed focus lens and a built-in microphone!

The USB-C UVC connection means you can use this camera module as a USB webcam, with all the plug n' play convenience you expect. Use it on your Raspberry Pi, Windows machine, Linux, Mac and more! The module has a small built-in microphone as well, making this a great 'hacky' webcam alternative!

The wide-angle 102° (HFOV) fixed-focus lens offers an alternative to the autofocus on the RPi Camera Module 3, offering faster-focussing speed and a more stable image quality.

The camera comes with a USB-C to USB-A cable to go with it. We also stock a standard lens version here!

Features

Arducam Wide Angle 12MP IMX708 USB-C UVC Fixed-Focus Camera Module with Microphone
The camera just works out of the box, which is great. The picture quality is ok, not amazing and you'll never get a truly crisp 12MP picture. I am not sure if this is because of the onboard compression, but it's annoying. The automatic brightness compensation is not great either, it needs to be set manually, making it difficult to use in changing conditions, e.g. as CCTV. It would be good to be able to adjust this, but afaict one cannot. The performance during low-light periods, e.g. outdoor evening and night, is terrible. Don't use this and hope to see anything at night, it's really awful even with gain at maximum.
