## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=CE08476:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/CE08476:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

**Please note: Software control of the IR-CUT filter is no longer available** due to changes in Raspberry Pi OS. The module will however continue to automatically adjust.

This [Arducam](https://core-electronics.com.au/search/?q=arducam) 5MP NOIR camera module for the [Raspberry Pi](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi/boards/model-b.html) is designed for both daylight and night vision photography with its built-in automatic motorised IR cut filter and dual infrared LED illuminator boards.

The motorised IR cut filter can be switched on/off automatically, whilst the infrared LEDs are automatically set on/off according to the light environment. The camera is fully supported all the Raspberry Pi board versions including Pi 4, Pi 3 and Pi Zero.

**Features**

- Automatic IR Cut Filter: On for daylight colour accuracy, off for IR night vision
- IR Corrected Lens: Features low dispersion glass that greatly reduces focus shift and chromatic aberration - focuses the light of different wavelengths on to an image plane at the same location unlike some other lenses
- IR LED Illuminator: Triggered by the light sensor that decides whether the light condition is poor and needs to be improved

**Package Contents**

- 1× Camera Board with 5MP OV5467 sensor and IR corrected lens
- 2× IR LED illuminator
- 2× Heat Sinks
- 1× 150 mm/5.9” FFC cable for Model A and B
- 1× 150 mm/5.9” FPC cable for Pi Zero models

**Resources**

**Note**: Software control of the IR-CUT features is no longer available, yet still shows in the following document:
