The Raspberry Pi Foundation had released two cameras designed to plug directly into the Raspberry Pi board: the regular Pi Camera and the Pi NOIR Camera. In the previous tutorial I showed you how to connect the camera and take a picture with it using Bash commands. In this tutorial I show you how to take pictures using Python 3!

This tutorial is a little older (published in 2015!). The main principles are still relevant, so I haven't needed to update this lesson.
