Unlike standard cameras, it omits the infrared filter, enabling night vision capabilities with IR lighting. Fully compatible with all Raspberry Pi models and supported by the latest Raspbian OS, it’s ideal for innovative projects requiring low-light imaging and versatile video capture. ## Description The infra-red camera module v2 (Pi NoIR) replaced the original PiNoIR camera in April 2016. The v2 camera has a Sony IMX219 8-megapixel sensor (compared to the 5-megapixel OmniVision OV5647 sensor of the original camera). The Pi NoIR gives you everything the regular camera module offers, with one difference: it does not employ an infrared filter. (NoIR = No Infrared.) This means that pictures you take by daylight will look decidedly curious, but it gives you the ability to see in the dark with infrared lighting. The camera works with all models of Raspberry Pi 1, 2 and 3. It can be accessed through the MMAL and V4L APIs, and there are numerous third-party libraries built for it, including the Picamera Python library. The V2 cameras are also backwards compatible, should you want to swap out a Pi Camera on an existing project or use an older model of Raspberry Pi. Just make sure you're version of Raspbian is up to date. There are some changes, of course, primarily in its CCD resolution. It now boast an 8 megapixel Sony IMX219 CCD (as opposed to its predecessor's 5 megapixels), and there's a new lens in place to beam a crystal-clear image onto it. You can expect resolutions for Photos up to 3280 px by 2464 px and Video at 1080p at 30fps; 720p at 60 fps; and 640 by 480p at 90 fps, offering a bit of slow-mo fun. Review: Really quite impessive - During lock down I set myself a goal of putting a CCTV system together for my motorcycle garage and this project just keeps on growing! I purchased this camera for a PI Zero W and it has not disappointed as secondary camera when using the IR LED's from a the camera on an old Raspberry PI 2 that I had laying around Review: Excellent picture quality. - I wanted to make a night camera that wasn’t washed out by bright lights (torches and headlights) so you need one of these and your own IR band pass filter matched to your illumination source wavelength that swings over the camera at night. Daylight pictures are purple tinted as there is no IR cut filter but for security purposes who cares. ## Features - 8 megapixel camera capable of taking infrared photographs of 3280 x 2464 pixels - Capture video at 1080p30, 720p60 and 640x480p90 resolutions - All software is supported within the latest version of Raspbian Operating System - 8 megapixel Sony IMX219 image sensor - 1 x Raspberry Pi Camera NOIR V2 + 1 x Blue gel ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01ER2SMHY | | Best Sellers Rank | 78,948 in Electronics & Photo ( See Top 100 in Electronics & Photo ) 1,131 in All-in-One Digital Cameras | | Box Contents | Raspberry Pi Camera NOIR V2, Blue gel | | Brand Name | Raspberry Pi | | Compatible Devices | Raspberry Pi | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (483) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00640522710898 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 3L x 25W millimetres | | Manufacturer | Raspberry Pi | | Manufacturer Part Number | RPI3-NOIR-V2 | | Memory Storage Capacity | 1 TB | | Model Name | NOIR Camera Module V2 | | Model Number | RPI3-NOIR-V2 | | Network Connectivity Technology | Infrared | | Operating System | Raspbian | | Processor Brand | Broadcom | | Processor Count | 1 | | RAM Memory Technology | LPDDR2 | | Total USB Ports | 4 | | UPC | 616909468003 640522710898 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | | Wireless Compability | Infrared | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Raspberry Pi - **Connectivity technology:** Infrared - **Included components:** Raspberry Pi Camera NOIR V2, Blue gel - **Memory storage capacity:** 1 TB - **Model name:** NOIR Camera Module V2 ## Images ![NoIR v2.1 8 MP 1080p Camera Module - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mWOVd3R5L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can this be used in real-time, e.g. on a Raspberry pi robot car?** A: Yes. can work of a battery, but watch the voltage, can be set to record video or time lapse stills **Q: Is this product compatible and ready to work (cables) with rpi zero w ?** A: No. Pi zero has its own camera and cables are much thinner. **Q: We want to build a security system for the front of the house. Would this be suitable for that? Also does it have night vision?** A: The Pi NoIR gives you everything the regular camera module offers, with one difference: it does not employ an infrared filter. (NoIR = No Infrared.) This means that pictures you take by daylight will look decidedly curious, but it gives you the ability to see in the dark with infrared lighting. I built a similar project with the camera and my suggestion is to buy something off the shelf instead. You can now get good clones of the ring video doorbell etc now so I would just buy that or a IP camera/security camera ready to go **Q: How long is the ribbon cable on this item? Im looking to put it on the front of a project and the pi sits in the back(about 30cm away)** A: It's 10cm ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really quite impessive *by F***T on 31 May 2020* During lock down I set myself a goal of putting a CCTV system together for my motorcycle garage and this project just keeps on growing! I purchased this camera for a PI Zero W and it has not disappointed as secondary camera when using the IR LED's from a the camera on an old Raspberry PI 2 that I had laying around ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent picture quality. *by T***R on 6 July 2019* I wanted to make a night camera that wasn’t washed out by bright lights (torches and headlights) so you need one of these and your own IR band pass filter matched to your illumination source wavelength that swings over the camera at night. Daylight pictures are purple tinted as there is no IR cut filter but for security purposes who cares. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ but have bought some 850nm ones that should work better according to other reviews I've read *by X***A on 28 March 2017* The sharpness isn't quite what I was hoping for, and it doesn't work well with my 950nm IR LEDs, but have bought some 850nm ones that should work better according to other reviews I've read, but over all happy with it. Note that mine was out of focus out of the box for some reason, just rotate the lens if you experience this. ## Frequently Bought Together - Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Module V2 - 8MP 1080P30 - Raspberry Pi Camera Module V2-8 Megapixel,1080p (RPI-CAM-V2) - Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W (Wireless / Bluetooth) 2021 (RPi Zero 2W) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/48616017-noir-v2-1-8-mp-1080p-camera-module](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/48616017-noir-v2-1-8-mp-1080p-camera-module) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-27*
