Excellent lens!
This is a really nice replacement lens for the Raspberry Pi 2 camera. Please note, this does not come with the board. Once again, it does not come with the board. You need to already have a Raspberry Pi 2 camera, this simply replaces the module that attaches to the board, not the entire camera.

160 degree camera module didn't come with the adapter board and flex
The photos clearly show the adapter board and flex so I expected them to be included. They were not.

This does work!
I replaced my stock imager on my V2 camera with this one because I wanted to have an M12 lens mount for flexibility. It worked and the image is better than the original.I wish there were aftermarket V2 boards available with this already mounted for the Pi. They are available in China for the Jetson Nano. I'll test that on on the PI when it arrives.

Perfect repacement for the NVIDIA Jetson Nano Jetbot
This module was used to replace the camera module on a Raspberry Pi Camera V2 and was used on a NVIDIA Jetson Nano Jetbot autonomous mobile robot for vision navigation. The Waveshare IMX219 Camera Module worked perfectly and the bot could ovoid obstacles collected using PyTorch from the Jetbot examples.

works for the nvidia jetson - no issues
Used for the nvidia jetson for "face recognition" - works as intended (need to follow "tweaking" settings as outlined in various sources).

Fantastic image from this device/lens combo
It was simple to replace the camera on the PI camera shield, the results made this purchase a bargain
