The Raspberry Pi Camera Board v2 and the Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Board v2 are high quality, 8 megapixel, Sony IMX219 image sensor custom designed add-on boards for Raspberry Pi, featuring a fixed focus lens. They’re capable of 3280 x 2464 pixel static images and also support 1080p30, 720p60, and 640x480p90 video.
They attach to the Pi by way of one of the small sockets on the board’s upper surface and use the dedicated CSi interface, designed especially for interfacing to cameras.
8 megapixel native resolution high quality Sony IMX219 image sensor
Cameras are capable of 3280 x 2464 pixel static images
Remaining High Quality
Capture video at 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p90 resolutions
All software is supported within the latest version of Raspbian Operating System
1.4 µm X 1.4 µm pixel with OmniBSI technology for high performance (high sensitivity, low crosstalk, low noise)
Optical size of 1/4″
The Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Board has no Infrared filter making it perfect for taking Infrared photographs or photographing objects in low light (twilight) conditions

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
