<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — Scaling issue with Pi3B and 1.18]]> 2016-08-15T11:18:03Z PunBB https://www.soliforum.com/topic/15315/scaling-issue-with-pi3b-and-118/ <![CDATA[Re: Scaling issue with Pi3B and 1.18]]> The Raspberry Pi cameras are all "fixed focus".  The focus distance cannot be changed in software.  It can only be changed by manually rotating the lens.

Focal length != focus distance. The focal length is a function of the camera lens, which for the 8mp camera is 3.04mm. Focus distance is not related to this number, and as far as I can tell, not adjustable.

Either that or just noise, it only has a few pixels showing per  interval.

Will try some different setups on Monday, but was wondering if there is a known issue. The 5 mp cam didn't do any better.
