Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera Module V2 - 8MP 1080P30
The Raspberry Pi NoIR Camera V2 is the “night vision” version of the official camera board released by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. This raspberry pi noir camera module v2 - 8mp 1080p30 has no Infrared filter, which makes it perfect for taking Infrared photographs or capturing objects in low-light (twilight) conditions.
The Infrared Camera Module V2 (Pi NoIR) replaced the original Pi NoIR Camera Module in April 2016. This raspberry pi noir camera features an ultra-high-quality 8-megapixel Sony IMX219 image sensor (up from 5MP on the V1 camera board), along with a fixed focus lens.
The V2 Picamera module is capable of capturing 3280 x 2464 pixel static images and supports video recording at 1080p30, 720p60, and 640x480p90.
The module attaches to Raspberry Pi by way of a 15-pin ribbon cable, connecting to the dedicated MIPI Camera Serial Interface (CSI), which was designed especially for camera integration. The CSI bus supports extremely high data rates and exclusively carries pixel data to the BCM2835 processor.
Compact and lightweight (25mm x 23mm x 9mm, just over 3g), this raspberry noir camera is ideal for embedded and space-constrained projects. It offers the same capabilities as the standard camera module, with one key difference—it lacks an infrared filter. This allows the camera to capture images in complete darkness when used with infrared lighting.
This camera works with Raspberry Pi models 1, 2, and 3 and is supported by MMAL and V4L APIs, along with third-party libraries like Picamera for Python.
Note: IR LEDs are needed for lighting when using the Pi NoIR camera module in the dark.
Note: Robocraze is the authorized seller of Raspberry Pi products in India. Therefore even if you are in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Kerala, Mumbai, or Pune, you can buy Raspberry Pi NoiR camera V2 online from Robocraze.

Why Choose a Raspberry Pi Camera with IR LED?
For users building night vision or surveillance systems, pairing this module with external IR LEDs transforms it into a powerful raspberry pi camera with ir led setup. This combination is widely used in security cameras, wildlife monitoring, and smart agriculture projects where visibility in complete darkness is required.
The raspberry pi noir camera module v2 - 8mp 1080p30 is especially suited for such applications due to its NoIR capability, enabling it to detect infrared light that standard cameras cannot capture.
