A project log for JDC34 Camera

This is another camera body based on Raspberry Pi HQ Cam

I'm working on a lens hood right now.

This is a cool zoom lens I bought it was $35, it's supposed to use 3 AAA batteries and have electronic auto focus but I just use it manually.

With the 5.5x crop factor this lens is the equivalent of 1100mm zoom so yeah, it needs a tripod without the ibis. Going to do some bird photography this weekend.

This was a very lazy tripod mount but it works.

The STL files for above are here. I am working on this list of random lenses I try with the RPi HQ cam including photos/videos. This is my camera/sensor for maybe ever... I've had Sony Alpha cameras and what not but I like designing my own camera bodies/software and I think 12MP is enough if you know how to use it.
