Nice Quality - Fine Performance
Verified Purchase
I ordered several of these for the Raspberry Pi cameras I have set up for Octoprint on my 3d printers. These cables are perfect - seem to be durable - and the black color goes well with my printers....all of which are black.
 
Fantastic packaging!
Verified Purchase
Raspberry Pi camera flex-circuit ribbon cable and it arrived rolled up in a slice of PVC pipe! Fantastic idea and almost indestructible packaging!
The black color looks nice on my Ender 3. :)
 
Good Cable, Good Price, Packaged EXCELLENT!
Verified Purchase
This PI Cam cable worked well and had a good price. What was equally impressive was the packaging! The cable was spooled on itself and then placed inside of a short piece of PVC pipe. This kept the cable spooled up and protected it from any shipping damage that might have occured in the padded envelope in which it was sent! Great idea and this extra packing step got the product to me without in great shape!!
 
It’s long and black, the wife loves it.

Works great for a “stealth” black look. Looks like it’s made well and it works just fine. The contacts look solid. Long enough for more mounting options. Not much else to say, it does what it says.
 
Perfect length camera cable for Raspberry Pi projects
Verified Purchase
Had to find a longer camera flex cable for a Pi project, ended up using this cable and it worked perfectly. The packaging of using PVC pipe to protect the cable was smart to prevent shipping damage. As far as durability, used this cable for an outdoor Pi project and it handled freezing temps.
 
Works as advertised on my pi camera!

I added a raspberry pi and octoprint to my 3D printer setup to monitor, upload, and control prints. To use a pi camera add on I needed a longer flat pin cable and this one (bought2) was the correct length and as always, Amazon got it to me in 2 days! It’s working great and I’m pleased!
 
Great cable!
Verified Purchase
I bought this to give me the freedom to reposition my Raspberry Pi camera on my 3d printer. I had to bend it over a few times to make it neat, and even unbent and re-bent it another way when I repositioned. The cable still works flawlessly!

I love the packaging, it comes rolled up on the inside of a section of PVC pipe that is then shrink-wrapped. A very cleaver way to protect the cable during shipping!
 
Works nicely!
Verified Purchase
Make sure you have a good power supply! using this longer cable seemed to make my pi reboot randomly, not the fault of the cable though! Works exactly as expected, seems nicer than the oem!
 
Just what I needed
Verified Purchase
This was just what I needed to complete my camera setup for the 3d printer. It is the perfect length and very easy to install
 
Works great

The additional length of this ribbon cable makes it a lot easier to mount my PI camera in a good viewing spot with my CR10 3d printer.

Custom Questions & answers

Question:Does this product work for raspberry pi model B?
Answer:Yes, it works for all raspberry pi models with an on board camera connector except for the pi zero.
 
Question:can it be folded at 45 deg to make a 90 deg turn? meaning all the way over and still lay flat.
Answer:Yes, these can be folded. They should be fine if the fold will be stationary. If you are setting this up on some sort of moving gantry where it will be folding and unfolding repeatedly that would potentially cause issues.
 
Question:Does this work with the raspberry pi zero and zero w?
Answer:Not directly. The zero has a smaller connector than a regular Pi and so you need a zero specific camera cable, but you could use this as an extension if you got a cable coupler/extender.
