The DFRobot 12.3MP Camera Module is built around the Sony IMX477 stacked BSI CMOS sensor — the same sensor used in the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera — and supports both NVIDIA Jetson Nano and Raspberry Pi 4B via MIPI CSI-2. With 12.3MP resolution, 1.55μm large pixels for excellent low-light performance, and a C/CS mount for interchangeable professional lenses, it is designed for demanding machine vision, 4K capture, and high-resolution AI inference applications on edge hardware. Specifications Resolution: 12.3 Megapixels (4056×3040) Sensor: Sony IMX477 stacked BSI CMOS Interface: CSI-2 (2-lane MIPI) Compatible Boards: NVIDIA Jetson Nano, Raspberry Pi 4B, 3B+, Compute Module Pixel Size: 1.55μm (large pixels for low-light performance) Lens Mount: C/CS mount (lens not included) Frame Rate: Up to 60fps at 1080p; 4K at lower fps Key Features Sony IMX477 high-resolution sensor — 12.3MP for exceptional image detail Large 1.55μm pixels for superior low-light and HDR performance C/CS mount for professional lens interchangeability Dual CSI-2 compatibility: NVIDIA Jetson Nano and Raspberry Pi 4B Back focus adjustment ring for precise focus calibration Supports 4K capture for high-resolution AI inference and inspection Works with JetPack SDK, libcamera, and Raspberry Pi OS Stacked BSI sensor design for reduced noise in challenging conditions Applications High-resolution machine vision and defect inspection on Jetson Nano 4K video recording with deep learning inference Scientific and research imaging Industrial quality control with interchangeable lenses Aerial and drone photography with Jetson Nano High-resolution object detection with YOLO/SSD Microscopy adapter with C-mount lens Raspberry Pi 4B photography with professional lenses Package Includes 1x DFRobot 12.3MP Camera Module (Sony IMX477) 1x CSI ribbon cable Note: C/CS mount lens sold separately. Jetson Nano and Raspberry Pi sold separately. FAQ Q: Is a lens included? A: No — the camera uses a C/CS mount and requires a separately purchased lens. Q: Which JetPack version is required? A: JetPack 4.6 or later. The IMX477 driver is included in JetPack 4.6+. Q: Can it do 4K recording? A: Yes — the sensor supports 4K. Frame rate at 4K depends on the host board CSI bandwidth. Q: How does it compare to the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera? A: It uses the same Sony IMX477 sensor as the Raspberry Pi HQ Camera, with equivalent image quality. Q: Does it support RAW capture? A: Yes — on both Raspberry Pi (via libcamera --rawfull) and Jetson Nano (via JetPack camera API).
