esp32-c camera module?

Postby mchahn » Wed Dec 13, 2023 9:25 am

I need an esp32 which can come out of a deep sleep and immediately capture a still image from a camera module. This is for a cheap wifi camera with a single button to take pictures and no power switch. As I understand it the esp32-s2 can connect to a cheap camera but it has no real deep sleep (slow restart). The esp32-c has real deep sleep but no camera interface.

So I guess I have to use an esp32-c with some camera connected with SPI. But the only SPI cameras I can find are much more expensive than the normal mpi. Can anyone suggest a cheap SPI camera module? Maybe some other setup than esp32-c and SPI?

I think I was incorrect and that deep sleep works the same in all version of the esp32. So ignore this post.
