Well, by just installing a camera module with your tiny pocket computer, you can explore the vast world of image processing, video processing, and even machine learning. You can develop many exciting projects with the Raspberry Pi camera module. The high-quality camera is a 12.3 Megapixel Sony IMX477 sensor that supports C- and CS-mount lenses. The Pi NoIR camera is much useful for night photography and video capturing. The infrared camera module 2 is the same as the regular module 2, except it does not employ an infrared filter. It is far better in image quality, low-light performance, and color fidelity. The new module is not just high in resolution. The V2 camera module supports 1080p30, 720p60 and VGA90 video modes.

It can be easily attached to the Camera Serial Interface (CSI port) of any Raspberry Pi. The module is compatible with Raspberry Pi 1, 2, 3, and 4. The V2 module has a Sony IMX219 8-Megapixel Sensor compared to the OmniVision OV5647 5-Megapixel sensor in the original module.

The camera module 2 is a replacement for the original camera module in April 2016. At present, Raspberry Pi Foundation offers three camera modules: One of the main attractions of the Raspberry Pi platform is its camera module.
