Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 NoIR | Wide | Standard

Camera Module 3 is available in standard (visible-light-only) and infrared-sensitive (NoIR) variants, with either a standard (75°) or wide-angle (120°) lens, giving you more options for your specific project needs. It can be used to take full HD video as well as stills photographs and features an HDR mode up to 3 megapixels. The module is capable of 4608x2592 pixel images and 4608x2592 @14 FPS/2304x1296 @56 FPS/1536x864 @120FPS video. When HDR is enabled, the resolution is limited to 2304x1296 @ 30 FPS.

The small size and light weight of this module make it ideal for mobile or other applications where size and weight are important. Suitable applications include CCTV security cameras, motion detection, time-lapse photography, etc.
