The Pidog Camera is VERY dark

Hello. We have just finished assembling the Pidog and everything works well except the camera which returns a very very dark image. I haven’t found how to adjust it: is it possible to adjust the brightness or is the camera faulty? This makes it impossible to detect faces etc. See attached for an example: what the epidog sees, and the actual light in the room. THANKS!

I fixed it by changing the settings in the raspistill file.

Good news to hear that. LesMalins, you did a great job! Just enjoy it. :slight_smile:

I’d you could help me with my other problem (see “ pinctrl: not found” post) it would be wonderful:-)

Hi, can you explain how you fixed the camera brightness?
what/where is rapistill?
Thanks!

The pinctrl not found issue can be ignored if it doesn’t affect usage. We will fix it later.
