8 megapixel , which camera should we use for imx6?

[dongpv]

hello,

We're using camera 5MP ov5640 for imx6Dual Lite. But now we're going to change to use higher camera (8MP).

Could you please give me a suggestion about the best of camera that we should use for imx6 among below list.

Part number	Mfr	Compatibility (Y/N)
OV8858	Omnivision
OV8865	Omnivision
OV8856	Omnivision
OS08A10	Omnivision
VB6955CM	Stmicro
AR0833	Onsemi
IMX179	Sony
IM219PQ	Sony

which one was already supported driver and BSP? In the linux kernel for imx6 version 4.1.15, I just see driver for ov5640, ov5642, ov5647 with 5MP.

Thanks in advance.

Dong

Hi Dong,

As you said obove, in our default BSP only driver for ov5640, ov5642, ov5647 with 5MP are supported. About the 8MP

you need to do porting yourself.
Have a great day,
Rita
