Berkeley Pi: New camera module from the Raspberry Pi foundation

[tom r lopes <tomrlopes@gmail.com>]

The Pi foundation has just announced a new official camera module: https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-high-quality-camera/

Summary: 12 mega-pixel sensor

                  No lens but CS mount and C-CS adapter 

                  Same connection as the previous cameras 

                  Tripod mountable 

For $50 (Maybe $65 with tax and shipping)  

Already sold out everywhere.  I have it on pre-order from Canakit 

So I should have it in June.  

For me, I'm thinking to use on my microscope.  It is trinocular microscope but 

I'm missing the camera mount.  Quick look to Ebay and I see adapters are not 

cheap.  Maybe I can't make it work easily.  At least I got some time to cancel the 

order :-)
