5 MP OV5647 Camera for Raspberry Pi

The KEHIPI camera module uses an Omnivision OV5647 sensor delivering five megapixels of effective resolution. It connects through a 15-pin MIPI CSI interface and is compatible with Raspberry Pi 5, 4, 3B+, 3B, 2 and Model A or B boards. The fixed-focus lens covers a 54 by 41 degree field of view.

1080p video at 30 fps with fixed focus

Still images reach 2592 by 1944 pixels while video tops out at 1080p at thirty frames per second. Focus is fixed from one metre to infinity, so close-up macro work is not supported. Peak current draw is 300 mA, supplied directly from the Pi board.

Upgrade from basic webcam or no camera

This module replaces USB webcams that occupy a USB port and add latency over the CSI bus. It is not suited for buyers who need autofocus, higher than 1080p resolution, or a global shutter for fast motion. Pi Zero owners cannot use this board due to the different connector.

Questions about this item

Will this 5MP OV5647 camera module connect to the 15-pin MIPI CSI port on my Raspberry Pi 4?

Yes, it ships with both a 15 cm 15-15 pin FPC cable for standard Pi 4/3/2 boards and a 15 cm 15-22 pin FPC cable for older Model A/B/B+ boards, so the module plugs directly into the CSI connector on any supported Pi.

How can I verify the camera is capturing 1080p video at 30 fps after installation?

Run libcamera-hello or raspivid on Raspberry Pi OS; the preview window will show a live 1080p feed at 30 fps, and the terminal reports the active resolution and frame rate, confirming the OV5647 sensor is operating at its maximum specified performance.

What cables come in the box and is a separate case required?

The package includes the 5MP OV5647 camera board, a 15 cm 15-15 pin FPC cable and a 15 cm 15-22 pin FPC cable; no case is included, but optional acrylic (ASIN), ABS or mini-tripod cases are available separately.
