MCDODO GS Global Shutter Camera Module IMX296 Mono 1456x1088 60fps

SKU CH-BTT7-6VFCC

Global shutter camera module with IMX296 mono sensor captures 1456×1088 video at 60 fps and supports external trigger for all Raspberry Pi boards

  • Product typeSingle Board Computers
  • Global shutter eliminates motion blur with IMX296 sensor
  • 58MP mono capture at 1456x1088 resolution and 60fps
  • Works with all Raspberry Pi boards via native libcamera drivers
  • External hardware trigger with sub-second latency for precise timing
  • Isolated trigger input and strobe sync for industrial reliability

Global Shutter Camera Module for Raspberry Pi

This global shutter camera module uses the IMX296 mono sensor at 1.58 megapixels and 1456 by 1088 resolution running at 60 frames per second. It is designed for Raspberry Pi boards including Pi 5, Pi 4, Pi 3B+, Pi 3 and Pi Zero with plug-and-play drivers. Makers and developers needing distortion-free capture of moving subjects will find it suited to robotics, inspection or high-speed tracking projects.

Compatibility and driver requirements

The module works with all listed Raspberry Pi models using native libcamera tools and the Rpi-Cam stack. It also supports InnoMaker v4l2-ctl trigger control for external capture workflows. An on-board EEPROM stores configuration data for automatic detection. Buyers who need colour imaging or a rolling shutter sensor should look elsewhere as this unit is mono global shutter only.

Build quality and daily use

The 6.3 millimetre type 1/2.9 CMOS sensor provides variable charge-integration for exposure control. Isolated hardware trigger input accepts a falling-edge signal with strobe synchronisation for precise timing. Dual output modes include continuous streaming and fast trigger mode with sub-second latency. The board mounts directly to the Pi camera connector for a compact setup.

Questions about this item

Does the module ship with a ribbon cable and mounting hardware or must I order them separately?

The camera module connects directly to the Raspberry Pi CSI port so no extra ribbon cable is required; mounting brackets or screws are not included and must be sourced separately.

Should I choose the global-shutter IMX296 mono sensor over a rolling-shutter alternative for fast-moving subjects?

Yes, the IMX296 global shutter captures all 1.58MP pixels simultaneously at 60fps, eliminating motion skew that rolling-shutter sensors introduce on fast-moving objects.

What does the 1456×1088 resolution at 60fps mean when the module is running on a Raspberry Pi 5?

The Pi 5 receives a 1.58MP mono Y10 stream at 60 frames per second through libcamera, giving low-latency frames suitable for real-time machine-vision tasks.
