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/CE09593:1.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) - **Payment methods, purchase orders, policies and contact details:** https://core-electronics.com.au/llms.txt ## Description The Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera is a specialised 1.6-megapixel camera that is able to capture rapid motion without introducing artefacts typical of rolling shutter cameras. It is ideally suited to fast motion photography and to machine vision applications, where even small amounts of distortion can seriously degrade inference performance. With a large pixel size of 3.45μm × 3.45μm providing high light sensitivity, the Global Shutter Camera can operate with short exposure times (as low as 30μs with adequate lighting), an advantage for high-speed photography. It features a 1.6MP Sony IMX296 sensor, and it has the same C/CS-mount lens assembly as the Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera, for compatibility with the same broad variety of lenses. In common with other global shutter sensors, the IMX296 has a lower resolution than similarly sized rolling shutter sensors; a low pixel count is appropriate for machine vision applications, where high-resolution images are challenging to process in real time. The Global Shutter Camera's lower resolution means that with appropriate lens magnification, an image suitable for processing by a machine vision model can be captured natively. The Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera includes a C- to CS-mount adapter making all of the lenses for the original HQ camera work, a screwdriver, and a 150mm ribbon cable, as well as a removable plastic back cover for protection. It is compatible with any Raspberry Pi computer that has a CSI connector. ### Specification - Form factor: 38 × 38 × 19.8mm (29.5mm adapter and dust cap) - Weight: 34g (41g with adapter and dust cap) - Sensor: Sony IMX296LQR-C - Resolution: 1.58 megapixels (colour) - Sensor size: 6.3mm sensor diagonal - Pixel size: 3.45μm × 3.45μm - Output: RAW10 - Back focus length of lens: Adjustable (12.5–22.4mm) - Lens standards: CS-Mount, C-Mount (C-CS adapter included) - IR cut filter: Integrated - Ribbon cable length: 150mm - Included accessories: C-CS mount adapter, screwdriver - Tripod mount: 1/4”-20 ### Documents - [Camera Product Brief](https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/gs-camera/gs-camera-product-brief.pdf) - [Mechanical drawing](https://datasheets.raspberrypi.com/gs-camera/gs-camera-mechanical-drawing.pdf) - [Documentation](https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentation/accessories/camera.html) ### Cable compatibility All models of Raspberry Pi Zero require a Raspberry Pi Zero camera cable to connect to the Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera; the standard cable supplied with the camera is not compatible with the smaller Raspberry Pi Zero camera connector. Suitable cables are available at low cost from many Raspberry Pi Approved Resellers, and are supplied with the [Raspberry Pi Zero Case](https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-zero-case/). ## Images - [Product image 1](https://core-electronics.com.au/media/catalog/product/c/e/ce09593-global-shutter-camera.jpg)
