The Foundation reported on its blog in May 2012 about a prototype [[camera module]] they have tested. The prototype used a {{nowrap|14 [[megapixel]]}} module, while the released version will be 5 megapixels.
 
On the 14th of May 2013 the foundation and the distributors RS Components & Premier Farnell/Element 14 launched the camera board with updated firmware to support the camera board. The camera board is shipped with a flex connectorcable that plugs ininto the CSI connector located between the Ethernet and HDMI ports. In Raspbian support can be enabled by updating the OS and then running Raspi-config and selecting the camera option. The Raspberry Pi also includes camera software. The cost of the camera module is ~ £20 in the UK
