DescriptionThe Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 is the latest compact camera from Raspberry Pi. and is available in standard and also night (NoiR) variants. NoIR is for night use only. Both the standard and NoIR variants additionally offer a wide-angle version.It offers an IMX708 12-megapixel sensor with HDR, and features phase detection autofocus. Camera Module 3 is available in standard and wide-angle variants, both of which are available with or without an infrared cut filter.Camera Module 3 can be used to take full HD video as well as stills photographs, and features an HDR mode up to 3 megapixels. Its operation is fully supported by the libcamera library, including Camera Module 3’s rapid autofocus feature: this makes it easy for beginners to use, while offering plenty for advanced users.The PCB size and mounting holes remain the same as for Camera Module 2.The Z dimension differs: due to the improved optics, Camera Module 3 is several millimetres taller than Camera Module 2.Features:Back-illuminated and stacked CMOS 12-megapixel image sensor (Sony IMX708)High signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)Built-in 2D Dynamic Defect Pixel Correction (DPC)Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF) for rapid autofocusQBC Re-mosaic functionHDR mode (up to 3 megapixel output)CSI‑2 serial data output2‑wire serial communication (supports I2C fast mode and fast-mode plus)2‑wire serial control of focus mechanismSpecifications:Sensor: Sony IMX708Resolution: 11.9 megapixelsSensor size: 7.4mm sensor diagonalPixel size: 1.4μm × 1.4μmHorizontal/vertical: 4608 × 2592 pixelsCommon video modes: 1080p50, 720p100, 480p120Output: RAW10Autofocus system: Phase Detection AutofocusDimensions: 25 × 24 × 11.5mm (12.4mm height for Wide variants)Ribbon cable length: 200mmCable connector: 15 × 1mm FPCCompliance: FCC 47 CFR Part 15, Subpart B, Class B Digital Device, EMC 2014/30/EU, RoHS NOTES:Please be aware that when using the camera with a Raspberry Pi Zero, you will need to purchase a separate, special Raspberry Pi Zero Camera Cable.Camera Module 3 requires libcamera software to be installed, which requires an updated version of Raspberry Pi OS with a new driver.ResourcesGitHub CodesRaspberry Pi Camera SoftwarePicamera2 Python libraryRaspberry Pi Camera Documentation
