 The camera mounted in our kit is based on the **OV5647 sensor**, capable of 2592x1944 pixels (**5 Mpixels**). The camera has a **wide viewing angle** of 175°. The camera requires a **manual focus adjust**, turning the lens mount clockwise or counerclockwise. The focus resulted a bit critical: trying to focus to infinity it resulted that the mere rotation of 1/16 of a turn, can **mess-out the focus** very badly. Also the quality of the pictures is **not exceptional**, they miss the crisp level that we would expect from a 5 Mpixels sensor. The camera mounted in our kit is based on the **OV5647 sensor**, capable of 2592x1944 pixels (**5 Mpixels**).
