Arducam IMX219 on rpi5 bookworm

1

Hi all,

I installed IMX219 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09VSS74L2?th=1 on the rpi5. But the libcamera-hello says “no camera available”.

  • Tried on camera 0 and camera 1, cable came with the camera
  • set “camera_auto_detect=0” and add “dtoverlay=imx219” on the /boot/config.txt
  • Power supply is not official but it provide 3A (when booting up)

Any help appreaciated.

Thanks

Hi,
Can you follow the steps below and put the generated bug-report into the google drive or other cloud storage and post the link here:

  1. Reboot your device.
  2. Execute the following command to download the bug report tool:
wget -O arducam-camera-bug-report https://github.com/ketai-dhr/arducam-camera-bug-report/releases/download/tools/arducam-camera-bug-report
  1. Set executable permissions for the tool:
chmod +x ./arducam-camera-bug-report
  1. Execute the tool to generate the bug report:
./arducam-camera-bug-report
  1. This will output an “arducam-bug-report.txt” file in the current directory.

I managed to make it work with

#Automatically load overlays for detected cameras
#camera_auto_detect=1
dtoverlay=imx219,cam0

Thanks

Hi,
That’s what I want you to do. Because Pi 5 has two csi interfance. If you enable the camera driver in the config file with “dtoverlay=imx219” and connect the camera to csi 0 port, Pi 5 will not detect this camera module.

I see. I tried with only “dtoverlay=imx219” and it works on csi 1 port. Guess will need to specifically specify the port.
Thank you for the respond.
