About this item

The Arducam 12MP IMX708 Wide-Angle Camera Module is a high-performance imaging solution tailored for the Raspberry Pi ecosystem. Featuring Sony’s advanced IMX708 image sensor, this module offers 12-megapixel resolution, delivering crisp still images and smooth video performance for demanding applications. Equipped with a 102-degree wide-angle lens, it provides a broader field of view than the standard Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3, making it ideal for surveillance, smart home systems, AI vision, and wide-scene monitoring projects. The fixed-focus lens ensures simple and stable operation without the need for recalibration or motorized adjustment. One of the key strengths of the IMX708 sensor is its support for HDR (High Dynamic Range), allowing the camera to capture balanced images in scenes with both bright and dark areas. The camera also boasts high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance, ensuring excellent image clarity in low-light environments. It connects via the MIPI CSI-2 interface and is fully compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, 4B, 3B+, Zero 2W, and Compute Modules. With full support in the Raspberry Pi camera software stack, this module offers a powerful and flexible solution for a wide range of computer vision tasks.
