for Raspberry Pi 4 B 3 B+ Camera Module Automatic IR-Cut Switching Day/Night Vision Video Module Adjustable Focus 5MP OV5647 Sensor 1080p HD Webcam for Raspberry Pi 2/3 Model B Model A A+

Exactly as described, and worked perfectly in normal light and low light conditions.

As stated in the headline, it works better than some of the generic cameras that I have all of which have automatic IR cut filters. Principally, it gives a better quality picture in both day and night modes and to me is worth the increased cost over the generic cameras that I have. Night vision is not quite as good as some of the commercial security cameras that I have used, but is acceptable.

Burned out quickly when using with a Pi running a 3D printer

The camera works well enough. It switches from day mode to night mode automatically. However, in day mode you need to have an evenly lit environment. If there is a bright spot in the field of view (such as a window), the photo sensor will expose for the brightest area and under expose the rest of the picture. The night mode works quite well. The LEDs are bright enough to illuminate an entire room indoors, even in complete darkness. My only reservation is that I would like to be able to control the IR Cut switch from my Raspberry Pi program. While that may actually be possible, I have yet to find any documentation on how to do that for the Dorhea version of the camera. I would also like to be able to control the exposure from my program. I am still researching if that is possible. In the mean time, I have been able to solve the exposure problems by covering the main photo sensor with dark grey plastic such that the night view is used in all but the brightest daylight. This is a good camera. I rate it only 4 stars because there is no documentation for how to control the switch using GPIO pins.

This camera has night vision and is a plug n plat for arduino and raspberry pi. It would have been ideal if it cane with a case but there are builds for you to print on a 3d printer. For best performance and not too much strain adjust to 720p and get 60 fps. The raspberry pi 4 recognizes it as a camera no additional programming is required. Delivery was fast and there are tutorials on being able to incorporate this into home assistant.

The image quality of this camera is nearly worthless. There is a bright pink ring around most of the image. In one of the photos uploaded to the review I took a picture of my entirely white ceiling which shows this discoloration clearly. The other image is from this camera pointed at a green lawn in the daylight and the pink borders are still clearly visible. It's impossible to focus except for the very center of the image as shown in the sample on the review. The camera is no better in low light than the "official" raspberry pi camera.This camera is the quality I would expect from an early 2000s webcam. Not worth any amount of money today. It's annoying as I spent time building a waterproof case which will now need to be replaced.Don't waste your money.

This is a great add-on for a raspberry pi. You hook up the camera and start coding. My kids made a code for a computer key to take a picture after a delay of 3 seconds. You do have to know basic coding in order to use this, but once you have the code in you’re good to go. My kids want to eventually put this into a robot. They love it! The picture quality is good for regular and night vision. The picture looks pixelated because i took a picture of the computer screen with my phone. We’re very happy with this!

The media could not be loaded. Using raspberryPi3b+ I was able to stream over my wifi a ~20fps 480p video with 1 or 2 seconds of latency.I used MotionEyeOS and a $20 IR floodlight that advertised 80ft of range, but I wasn't thrilled with it's apparent brightness at 20ft.Very happy with this camera, all the limitations of the setup appear to be processing speed of the Pi and brightness of my chosen floodlight. I could have achieved higher resolution if I didn't prioritize smoothness of the video.
