Can you believe that the Raspberry Pi got smaller and cheaper?! The new Raspberry Pi Zero is an super-ultra-low-cost, tiny-small-form-factor Raspberry Pi!
We highly recommend adding our "Zero Essentials Kit", as it contains the relevant adapter cables, (aswell as a wide selection of GPIO headers) needed for the new Raspberry Pi Zero ports (more details below)
The Raspberry Pi Zero now comes complete with a camera port! Using the new Raspberry Pi Zero Camera Adapter, you can now use a Raspberry Pi camera to your Zero
Alex Eames (RasPi.TV) got his hands on the new Raspberry Pi Zero early, here is his review
