Problems you were having?
So i got this camera, and i wanted to be able to use it with a manual zoom function and external lens. My research got me to this product, (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CZ4VBGF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1), that says it zooms up to 50m and so on. I bought it and just for testing, set it right up against the arducam module, and no matter the distance of the object to be recorded in front of the arducam, up to a few feet, the object would not come into focus. Overall, my idea is that I am trying to use this camera module along with a raspberry pi, to record when i work on circuit boards. The camera and the raspberry by themselves work perfectly, but the image capture distance is too far to notice the details of the board itself. I would like something that gives like a 4x ish magnification, and the distance between my headmount for the camera and the workstation is around 20 inches. Any advice on how to get it to work or what other lenses i should try buying would be appreciated. -

Hi
I’m confuesd that B0306 can not work with this product, (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CZ4VBGF?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1 ).
I think I was stuck in the question cloud…
