What's the difference between a camera module and a traditional camera

There are some key differences between the camera module and the traditional camera, mainly reflected in the function, connection mode, use scenario, and configuration. First of all, in terms of function, the camera module usually has more automatic functions, such as autofocus, automatic exposure and automatic white balance. These features make the camera modules more suitable for the average consumer, as they are able to automatically adjust the image parameters for better shooting results. Traditional cameras pay more attention to manual control and adjustment to meet the needs of professional users for accurate control of the image

Secondly, in terms of connection methods, the camera module usually uses standard interfaces, such as USB, MIPI and CSI, which helps the module to connect and 

communicate with various devices, making it more compatible and scalable. In contrast, traditional cameras use more dedicated interfaces and connections to

 meet the high performance and high bandwidth needs of specific fields.

In addition, in the use scenario, the camera module is widely used in consumer electronics products, such as mobile phones, tablets, etc., due to its compact size

 and highly integrated characteristics. Traditional cameras are more suitable for applications that require higher image quality and more versatile options in 

professional photography, surveillance systems and security.

Finally, in terms of configuration, traditional cameras in order to meet the needs of professional photography or security, usually have higher pixels and

 resolution, some products also have anti-glare, anti-vibration, night vision functions. The camera module is configured according to the needs of specific

 application scenarios, and may be different from traditional cameras in some aspects.

To sum up, there are obvious differences between the camera module and the traditional camera in terms of function, connection mode, use scenario

 and configuration. You can select the appropriate camera device based on the requirements of the county and application scenarios.
