Description

After a long wait of almost 7 years, the Raspberry Pi released the camera-3 series, the successor to the Camera module 2 series. This newest addition to the Raspberry Pi mainstream camera lineup replaces the wildly successful Camera Module 2, which was introduced in April 2016.
The all-new Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 Standard/Wide is a camera for Raspberry Pi computers. Featuring autofocus and a 12-megapixel sensor supported by Raspberry Pi??s Picamera2 Python library, Camera Module 3 gives you excellent image quality with precise control.
Camera Module 3 came up with significant improvements over Camera Module 2, which is built around a 12-megapixel Sony IMX708 image sensor. Additionally, Camera Module 3 is offered with a normal (76?) or wide-angle (120?) lens, as well as in regular and infrared-sensitive (NoIR) versions.

The standard variant is designed to take pictures in normal light.
The NoIR variant?doesn??t have an infrared filter, so you can use it together with an infrared light source to take pictures in the dark.

Below is the short spec comparison of all variants:
