RPi5 Doesn't Recognize IMX477

Raspberry Pi Cameras
1
  1. Where did you get the camera module(s)?
    IMX477 from Amazon
  2. Model number of the product(s)?
    See (1)
  3. What hardware/platform were you working on?
    Raspberry Pi 5/8GB
  4. Instructions you have followed. (link/manual/etc.)
    I did a full apt/apt-get update and upgrade.
  5. Problems you were having?
    rpicam-hello returns saying there are no cameras detected.
  6. The dmesg log from your hardware?
    dmesg | grep imx477 returns nothing
  7. Troubleshooting attempts you’ve made?
    I’m running a fresh RPi5 image and Arducam says the IMX477 is supported natively, so why doesn’t it work natively?
  8. What help do you need?
    Help!

I updated the config file to the following, did a reboot, and the pi still does not find the camera. Did I update the config file wrong?
