## Description

Capture high-quality images and videos with your [Raspberry Pi.](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi.html) Connect this official camera to your Pi's dedicated camera port, and follow [our easy getting-started guide](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi-bullseye-camera-commands/) to start capturing the world!

The improved camera module 3 boasts a 12MP sensor along with a high dynamic range mode, ultra-fast auto-focus, and a rich library of software commands to take control of your shot.

If you want to capture more check out the [Wide angle version](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-camera-v3-wide-angle.html), and if night vision is your thing have a look at the [NoIR Camera 3](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-camera-v3-noir.html) (also available with [a wide lens](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-camera-module-3-noir-wide.html))

### Installation

The included ribbon cable should connect to the CSI connector on your Pi (next to the HDMI ports), to connect to the Pi Zero you'll need a [Raspberry Pi Zero Camera Adapter](https://core-electronics.com.au/raspberry-pi-zero-camera-adapter.html).

**Notes:**

- The camera module 3 does not support the Legacy camera interface. [You will need to use the Libcamera commands](https://core-electronics.com.au/guides/raspberry-pi-bullseye-camera-commands/) as the Raspistill and Raspivid commands are no longer supported.
- The new V3 camera will require a firmware update to run if your version of Raspberry Pi OS is from before January 2023.
