I ordered Raspberry Pi Camera Board v2 - 8 Megapixels PID: 3099 on Dec 16 2022 (order id 2981086-0887744754
) but am unable to get it working. No matter what I try, the camera is never recognized. For example, libcamera-hello reports "*** no cameras available ***"
Here are some details:
Followed appropriate static protection procedures
Followed the camera connection video
Tried on multiple R-Pi 2 boards (don't have any 3 or 4s)
Tried reseating all connectors (ribbon and on-board connector)
Tried on bullseye and buster
Tried enabling Glamor on bullseye
Tried other troubleshooting suggestions online such as enabling legacy camera support
One thing that concerns me is that I put the camera in its case first thing, before I saw the warning about the new foam backing being thicker than what the case was designed for--worried I might have damaged the camera.
Any recommendations for further troubleshooting would be appreciated or is the camera DoA?
