Or is this just an auto-focus that cannot be controlled?** A: The focus can be manually controlled and, as I recall, the driver package contains some scripts and examples to demonstrate the control API. Since no extra cables are needed, I assume it's just using the CSI cable's standard control channel (I2C I believe) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good camera with autofocus *by F***H on 28 February 2023* ### ⭐ This sounds like a good deal..... *by T***N on 4 May 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Klasse für den Raspberry Pi *by D***G on 17 December 2024* Für den Raspberry Pi ist die Kamera perfekt. Die Einrichtung ist recht simpel und elektronisches Fachwissen ist auch nicht notwendig. Einziger Nachteil ist, dass die Kamera nicht mit einer Jetson betrieben werden kann. Das ist aber auch so beschrieben. Geht also klar. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arducam 16MP Autofocus Camera Module for Raspberry Pi with ABS Case, IMX519 16 Megapixel High Resolution Autofocus Camera for All Raspberry Pi Models - Arducam for Raspberry Pi Camera Ribbon Flex Extension Cable Set (7Pcs), 5.9” 7.87” 11.8” 19.69” 39.37” for Raspberry Pi, 2.87” 5.91” for Pi Zero - Raspberry Pi 4 Model B 2019 Quad Core 64 Bit WiFi Bluetooth (4GB) --- ## 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.co.uk/products/521541627-arducam-16mp-autofocus-raspberry-pi-camera-module-with-abs-case](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/521541627-arducam-16mp-autofocus-raspberry-pi-camera-module-with-abs-case) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
