== Summary ==<br />
The Waveshare RPi Camera (B) uses an OV5647 sensor with 5 megapixels and a manually adjustable 6 mm lens. It connects via the CSI interface on all Raspberry Pi boards and is compatible with both libcamera and Raspicam.<br />

<br />
== Technical overview ==<br />
* Sensor: OV5647, image size 1/3 inch, aperture f/2.0, diagonal field of view 75.7 degrees<br />
* Fixed focal length: 6 mm, manually adjustable; lens thread M12 x 0.5; lens outer diameter 14 mm<br />
* Still-image resolution: 2592 x 1944 pixels<br />
* Video formats: 1080p at 30 fps, 720p at 60 fps, 640 x 480 at 60 or 90 fps<br />
* Connection: CSI port located between audio jack and HDMI port on classic Pi boards; on Pi Zero the CSI port is next to the power connector<br />
* On Raspberry Pi 5, two CSI ports are available; either can be used<br />
* Bookworm configuration: edit /boot/firmware/config.txt, set camera_auto_detect=0 and add dtoverlay=ov5647<br />
* Bullseye configuration: edit /boot/config.txt, change camera-auto-detect=1 to camera_auto_detect=0 and add dtoverlay=ov5647<br />
* Two cameras can be connected simultaneously using cam0/cam1 assignment in config.txt<br />
* Mounting holes: four holes with 1.5 mm diameter<br />

<br />
== Notes and version constraints ==<br />
* Exact commands for rpicam-still, rpicam-vid, rpicam-raw, rpicam-detect, raspistill, raspivid and raspiyuv are only listed as headings in the source; full parameters must be derived from the documentation<br />
* Configuration file version sensitivity depends on the OS used (Bullseye vs. Bookworm)<br />
* Auto-focus only works with official Raspberry Pi camera modules; the RPi Camera (B) has a manually adjustable focus<br />
* When connecting two cameras, the cam0/cam1 assignment must be correct, otherwise default cam0 applies<br />
* For IMX290 on Pi 5, an additional JSON file must be installed; this does not apply to the OV5647 camera<br />
* The compatibility list includes many sensor models; whether all actually work should be verified before purchase<br />
