Designed for Raspberry Pi boards from Zero to Pi 5, it offers manual focus precision and HDR imaging up to 3MP, making it the ultimate choice for developers and creators seeking high-resolution, versatile camera solutions for robotics, surveillance, and advanced computer vision projects. ## Description Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 is the latest camera model released by Raspberry Pi Official in 2023. Arducam has designed two Fixed-Focus camera variants before. This camera adopts the 11.9MP IMX708 Image Sensor which can be used to take full HD video as well as still photographs and features an HDR mode of up to 3 megapixels. The camera is equipped with a 120° wide-angle M12 Lens. Wide-Angle Lens always has a deeper depth of field which can effectively reduce bokeh. A manual focus camera allows you to use it in situations such as macro photographs, low light, etc. where autofocus is difficult to achieve. Meanwhile, it is native to Raspberry Pi and fully supported by libcamera and Picamera2 library. Arducam is committed to creating diverse and convenient camera solutions. Also, we designed various accessories for the Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 which include the Camera Extension solution, Quad-Vision stereo camera kit, UVC USB camera solution, and upcoming FPD-Link solution, etc. Image Sensor: IMX708 Optical Size: 1/2.43(7.4mm sensor diagonal) Pixel Size: 1.4μm × 1.4μm Shutter Type: Rolling Shutter Common Video Mode: 2304 × 1296p56, 2304 × 1296p30 HDR, 1536 × 864p120 F.NO: F2.8±5% Field of View(FOV): 152.2°(D)x120°(H)x66.7°(V) Camera Board Size: 25 × 24 × 15.36mm The official IMX708 Camera Module 3 can be used on Raspberry Pi directly (B0306, B0307).

RPi 5 requires 2 narrow ends on ribbon cable with this can. It's provided but short at 250 mm length. Follow the configuration edits for RPi operation. Fairly painless "Bookworm " installation with the configuration edits. Works great with installation of XRDP in Bookworm for Remote Desktop connection to rpi from Windows 11 and video stream connection. Don't use auto login on RPi if you're going to Remote Desktop. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for monitoring 3D printers. *by on Reviewed in the United States November 2, 2023* I have multiple 3D printers and I use a Raspberry Pi with cameras to monitor and control the printers. I have a couple of the Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera Modules and they all work great. It will plug right into the Raspberry Pi and work natively.It is a manual focus camera which is what you want as an autofocus camera will constantly try to focus with a moving background. Using a manual focus, you can use a focal point where the print is located. With the wide HFOV, you can be closer to the print bed and still see the entire bed.Of course, it can be used for a large variety of applications and projects. As I have used them before, I can absolutely recommend the Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera Module! ### ⭐⭐⭐ Hard to set up on the back end *by on Reviewed in the United States October 25, 2025* I'm not saying this is good or bad but I had to issue setting this up for the purposes I needed ## Frequently Bought Together - Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 Wide, 120° IMX708 Manual Focus Pi Camera V3 with M12 Lens, 15cm 15-22 Pin FFC Cable - Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 2019 Quad Core 64 Bit WiFi Bluetooth (4GB) - Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera 16MP IMX519 Camera Module with 140°(D) Wide Angle M12 Lens for Raspberry Pi and OpenHD --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/526226204-120-h-manual-focus-pi-camera-v3](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/526226204-120-h-manual-focus-pi-camera-v3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-06-30*
