Miniature TTL Serial Camera Viewing Distance

Post by shorson »

For this serial camera:
http://www.adafruit.com/products/1386

The description for the product mentioned " it has a 1-15 meter focal distance by default". Will it be able to see objects 10cm away with reasonable focus? Or perhaps I need to change the lens?

Thank you in advance.

It has a manual focus lens, which I think will go down to 5cm.

Let me know if it doesn't work for you. We can refund it.

Silly question --- how do I manually adjust the focus on this camera?

Never mind on the focus question. You just turn the lens. Mine was just a bit sticky and I didn't want to break it by turning something that wasn't meant to be turned. But it is working now.
