Like an original V1, V2, or HQ camera, it is also able to fully leverage Raspberry Pi’s native ISP tuning algorithms to offer both exceptional ultra low light performance and highest possible quality with images and videos. https://www.arducam.com/docs/cameras-for-raspberry-pi/pivariety/2mp-imx462-pivariety-low-light-camera-module/ https://www.uctronics.com/arducam-imx298-mipi-16mp-color-camera-module-for-raspberry-pi.html IMX298 16MEG https://www.uctronics.com/arducam-cmos-ar1820hs-1-2-3-inch-18mp-color-camera-module.html AR1820 18MEG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIlnO0U70ew IMX230 21Meg https://www.arducam.com/?s=imx179

https://www.arducam.com/use-almost-any-mipi-camera-module-on-raspberry-pi/ Arducam MIPI Cameras: Up to 18 Megapixels, While the Raspberry Pi foundation is satisfied with the current situation, Arducam steps forward to enable advanced applications. The Arducam team has worked hard in the past few years to solve the technical issues, and now we just released a low cost, high-performance camera board for the Raspberry Pi platform, enabling users to connect most MIPI camera modules directly to Raspberry Pi’s native CSI camera port.

These Arducam MIPI Camera Modules adopts the Raspberry Pi Zero like 22-pin CSI connector, and you can easily use them on Raspberry Pi 4, Pi 3/3B+, Pi Zero, and Raspberry Pi Compute Module with Arducam SDK and examples. You can now use a better camera module for applications like wildlife camera, surveillance camera, Raspberry Pi video streaming, AR/VR, QR code scanning, and so on.

Global vs rolling shutter
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I10PEyfGKNk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqoRutVxmmA In today's VLOG, we speak last nights news that Sony Developing a Back-Illuminated CMOS Image Sensor with Global Shutter. Now let get too excited as it's only 1.46MP and they need at least 10MP for 4K video but they're on the right path. As I've said over the years, once a Global Shutter is available, there will no longer be any need for a mechanical shutter and the DSLR as we know it will be finished. What do you think about the possible end of the DSLR era? How long do you think it will be until all cameras will be mirrorless?
