The Adafruit Raspberry Pi Camera Board Case is a compact two-piece polycarbonate enclosure that protects your Pi Camera while providing a 1/4" tripod mount on the back. Designed by Mike Doell, it snaps together without screws and features a sleek black base with a clear top.

The case includes a slim opening for the ribbon cable, side slots for zip-ties or straps, and a tiny hole in the lid aligned with the camera lens. The 1/4" tripod nut lets you mount it on any standard tripod or camera mount. Compatible with both Pi Camera v1 and v2.

Key Features

  • Polycarbonate Construction – Ultra-durable, super-glossy black base with clear top
  • Snap-Together Design – Two pieces that click together without screws
  • 1/4" Tripod Mount – Standard tripod screw nut on the back
  • Ribbon Cable Slot – Slim opening for the camera ribbon cable
  • Mounting Slots – Side slots for zip-ties, velcro straps, or tape
  • Lens Opening – Precise hole in the lid for undistorted image capture
  • Pi Camera v1 & v2 Compatible – Fits both 5 MP and 8 MP camera modules

Package Contents

  • 1× Clear polycarbonate top

Ideal For

  • Tripod-mounted time-lapse and photography projects
  • Protecting the Pi Camera in portable setups
  • Security and monitoring installations
  • Mounting the camera to surfaces with zip-ties or straps
Note: Raspberry Pi Camera Board is not included. If using the Pi Camera v2 (8 MP), you may need to remove the sticky rubber spacer between the camera module and PCB to prevent blurriness due to the slightly thicker module pressing against the case.

Jargon buster

Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.

PCB
A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
