Bring your Raspberry Pi projects to life—even in the dark—with the Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 NoIR, the latest official camera from Raspberry Pi featuring the powerful 12MP Sony IMX708 image sensor. This version is infrared-sensitive (NoIR), making it ideal for low-light photography, infrared imaging, and night surveillance when paired with an IR light source.
Equipped with powered autofocus, enhanced low-light performance, and HDR (High Dynamic Range) capability, this camera delivers crisp, detailed images in virtually any lighting condition. Whether you're building a wildlife camera, security system, or nighttime time-lapse setup, the NoIR module gives you incredible flexibility and clarity.
You can choose between a standard 75° lens or a wide-angle 120° lens to suit your project needs. Just make sure to select the right option before checkout.
⚠ Important Compatibility Notes:
To use this module with Raspberry Pi 5 or Raspberry Pi Zero, you’ll need the appropriate camera adapter cable (sold separately).
