The Spy Camera for Raspberry Pi is smaller than a thumbnail, yet it provides a high enough resolution to see people, pets, and anything else you might be looking for. It's about the size of a cell phone camera module, measuring only 8.5mm x 11.3mm. You can get creative with it as well! It's easy to mount it behind a doorbell or inside a toy bear's eye, giving it a stick-on rear.
The camera comes with a 289mm (11.4") long cable, allowing you to extend and mount your Pi away from the camera. Like the Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2, it connects to your Raspberry Pi via one of the two small sockets on the board's upper surface. This interface uses a special CSI (Camera Serial Interface) designed specifically for interfacing with cameras. The CSI data bus has very high data rates and carries only pixel data. Raspberry Pi is NOT INCLUDED.
The camera connects to the Pi through the CSI (Camera Serial Interface) data bus, which provides a higher bandwidth connection to the BCM2835 processor on the Pi, allowing it to transfer pixel data from the camera to the processor. This data bus travels along the ribbon cable that connects the camera module to the Pi. It's worth noting that the ribbon cables used with the camera modules are not compatible with the Pi Zero, and there are no adapters available for Pi Zero use. If you want to use a camera with a Pi Zero, you should look into the 'classic' Raspberry Pi cameras.
The sensor has a native resolution of 5 megapixels and features a built-in fixed-focus lens. In terms of still images, the camera has a static image capacity of 2592 x 1944 pixels, and it also supports video at 1080p30, 720p60, and 640x480p60/90 resolutions.
