(But probably not 4K@30fps) - Edit: After learning more about FFMPEG, I have posted formats for this camera. It reports maximum 10fps at 4K, but OBS claims it can record at 30fps. I was able to use V4L2 to enable/disable dynamic framerate, so maybe it's possible, despite what the driver reports? The value is still fantastic. Format printouts attached to this review for reference. Original review below. I can confirm that these output 4k@30fps on Windows, Linux and Android. On Windows (a PC with an NVidia RTX 4090) I can record two cameras side-by-side at 7680*3032 at 30fps using OBS. On Android I've managed to get 1 camera running at 14fps, limited by the mobile device's hardware, not the camera. On a Linux laptop I finally managed to dump the camera's bitstream directly to disk using ffmpeg (for later repacking in a video container and recoding to a reasonable playback rate) and successfully captured 8K 15fps streams from two cameras simultaneously. While it falls short of 30fps for reasons I do not understand, I delighted with the results. :-) Review: works with raspberry pi - connected this via USB to my raspberry pi. works fine with v4l2. only issue is auto exposure has a hard time dealing with bright sunlight and picture gets washed out. not able to improve much with manual exposure so far, so working on that. works better in not so bright and indoor situations. The focus is not adjustable but that is not an issue for my use. ## Features - 12MP 477M: Based on a 12MP CMOS image sensor with M12 lens; Max Resolution: 3840(H)Γ—3032(V).

The focus is not adjustable but that is not an issue for my use. ### ⭐ Not outputting 4k 30fps *by I***E on August 7, 2024* I'm extremely disappointed with this camera module. Despite the description claiming it can output 4K at 30fps, we were unable to achieve this resolution and frame rate no matter what we tried. We followed the instructions to the letter, updated the firmware, and even tried different settings, but the best we could get was a lower resolution. But the problems don't stop there. The camera module is also incredibly difficult to use. The interface is clunky and unintuitive, making it a chore to navigate and adjust settings. We spent hours trying to get it to work as advertised, but it was a frustrating and fruitless experience. For a product that claims to offer high-quality video output, it's shocking that it falls so short. The lack of 4K 30fps support is a major deal-breaker, and the poor user experience only adds to the disappointment. Unless the manufacturer addresses these issues and provides a software update to enable 4K 30fps output, I would strongly advise against purchasing this camera module. Save your money and look elsewhere for a reliable and user-friendly camera solution. Pros: None Cons: Unable to achieve 4K 30fps output as advertised Difficult and frustrating to use Poor interface and navigation Not worth the money Would not recommend. ## Frequently Bought Together - Arducam 12MP USB Camera Module, 4K@30fps Lightburn Camera with M12 Manual Focus Lens for Raspberry Pi, Windows, and Mac OS - Arducam M12 Lens Set, Lens for Raspberry Pi Camera (1/4) and Arduino, Telephoto, Macro, Wide Angle, Fisheye Lens Kit (10- 200) with M12 Lens Holder and Cleaning Cloth, Optical All-in-One - Arducam M12 Lens Kit for Raspberry Pi HQ Camera (Type 1/2.3), 20 to 180 Degrees Telephoto, Wide Angle, Fisheye Lenses with M12 to CS-Mount Adapter, Locking Ring, Cleaning Cloth and More --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co/products/534633683-12mp-usb-camera-module-4k-15fps-lightburn-camera-with-m12](https://www.desertcart.co/products/534633683-12mp-usb-camera-module-4k-15fps-lightburn-camera-with-m12) --- *Product available on Desertcart Colombia* *Store origin: CO* *Last updated: 2026-06-08*
