Raspberry Pi Camera group test, comparing the ZeroCam, Raspberry Pi Camera V2, and the Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
On October 30th 2021, a new version of Raspberry Pi OS was released known as “Bullseye”. This has new camera drivers that are not compatible with the terminal commands and Python camera code demonstrated in this video. Sorry. If you are running the version of Raspberry Pi OS known as "Buster", or an earlier version, things should work just fine. I discuss the matter in depth in my video here: • Video
