Setting up a Raspberry Pi Camera

I had a small generic Raspberry Pi Camera Rev 1.3 lying around in my parts box for some time and I have always put aside working on it. So I decided to finally take it out and one of my Raspberry Pi zeros to test out the Raspberry Pi Camera.

Setting up the Pi camera isn't that difficult. All you need to do is to connect the ribbon cable to the camera connector on the Raspberry Pi and enable the camera through that Raspberry Pi Configuration.

I took some photos using the raspistill command on the terminal and obtained a few decent photos.

The picture below is very low light example picture with the subject at distance about a 3/4 of a foot from the camera.
