Our Review
After integrating the LESANGBAIHUODIAN ESP32-CAM WiFi + Bluetooth Module Camera Module Development Board ESP32 with Camera Module OV2640 2MP Fit for Arduino(ESP32S) into several test builds, we found it to be a capable component for the price. Key specs include Sensor: OV2640 2MP, Resolution: 640x480, Interface: CSI-2 (MIPI).
Image quality was good in well-lit conditions. Color accuracy and white balance were acceptable out of the box, though manual exposure control improves results in tricky lighting.
Integration with the host platform was straightforward. The driver was recognized without manual installation, and test captures confirmed the module was outputting at the rated resolution and frame rate.
For the price point, the LESANGBAIHUODIAN ESP32-CAM WiFi + Bluetooth Module Camera Module Development Board ESP32 with Camera Module OV2640 2MP Fit for Arduino(ESP32S) delivers what you need without unnecessary complexity. Recommended for hobbyists and engineers working on projects where cameras & vision components are essential.
What We Like
- Decent resolution for embedded computer vision tasks
- Low power draw suitable for battery-powered monitoring
- Multiple interface options for different host platforms
- Adjustable focus for close-up and distant subjects
Watch Out For
- Rolling shutter causes artifacts with fast-moving subjects
- No onboard image processing — all load on host MCU/SBC
- Auto-exposure can lag in rapidly changing lighting
