Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2

The MCDODO Camera Module V2 is an 8 megapixel camera board built around the Sony Exmor IMX219 sensor. It connects directly to a Raspberry Pi single-board computer via the CSI interface. Makers and developers use it for computer-vision projects, time-lapse photography and portable monitoring.

Fixed focus lens and video modes

The module ships with a fixed-focus lens so no manual adjustment is required. The IMX219 sensor supports 1080p at 60 frames per second, 720p at 180 frames per second and 8 megapixel stills at 3280 by 2464 active pixels. These modes give flexibility for both smooth motion capture and high-resolution snapshots.

CSI bandwidth and power limits

On a Raspberry Pi board the CSI link caps video recording at 1080p30 while stills remain at the full 8 megapixel resolution. A 2A power supply is highly recommended to keep the sensor and the host board stable under load. Projects needing 4K30 or higher frame rates at 1080p require a different capture path.

Questions about this item

Will the Sony IMX219 sensor or the fixed-focus lens need periodic cleaning or replacement?

The sensor and fixed-focus lens are sealed on the board; only occasional dust removal from the lens surface is needed.

What frame-rate ceiling will the Raspberry Pi board hit first when recording 1080p video continuously?

The Pi board limits 1080p capture to 30 fps even though the module can output 1080p60.

How much heat or power draw should I expect from the camera module during all-day 1080p30 streaming?

The module draws minimal power and runs cool; a 2 A supply for the Pi is recommended to cover the whole system.
