Hello Adafruit support,
I recently bought a Adafruit Raspberry Pi Camera Board Case With 1/4" Tripod Mount ADA3253 an berrybase.de.
Unfortunately it is not possible to attach the camera board on the four pins in the case, because the pins do not fit exactly for the drillings in the camera board. The camera is the 5MP Camera "5MP Kamera für Raspberry Pi
Artikel-Nr.: RPI-CAM-A EAN: 4251266702559", also bought from berrybase, The case ist listed as accessory for this camera, so it should fit. It seems the pins are not exactly straight by means of deviations in the production.
berrybase demands customers of Adafruit products to contact Adafruit forum, before they agree to send a replacement.
Hope you can help me. Best regards.

It sounds like you are using a V1 camera, which should fit as shown:

Can you post a photo showing the misalignment you are seeing with your setup.

Hello,
I hope that you can see, that when the camera is aligned to the two stand on the bottom of the picture, it is not possible to align them to the stands of the other side.

Thanks for the photo. It looks like pin 1 is slightly mis-aligned? While the other pins are lining up OK?
Have you tried carefully pushing the camera module to get the pins to line up? Maybe it just needs some minor coaxing? It looks really close.
