The Owlsight cam has been a big improvement for us and object detection. It enables us to use the autofocus and capture a huge area and zoom in digitally. Before we were using the 12MP camera and having to use a zoom lens and manually focus, which drastically reduced the FOV. Now we can use fewer cameras and have better detection rates. Overall I'm impressed.Can confirm that the OwlSight 64MP "just works". One has to be a little careful with buffer choice so you don't run out of memory, but it takes picture as expected and I can find many uses for 14 MB 9248x6944 images.
Most of Arducam's newer camera range works without their software and only the correct overlay loaded at boot. At work, we don't need (or really want) autofocus. They do a fixed focus camera with the same field of view as the v3 wide camera and the same imx708 sensor (Arducam 12MP IMX708 102 Degree Wide-Angle Fixed Focus). Personally, I really like their 12MP IMX708 HDR 120°(H) Wide Angle fixed focus camera, but The Boss didn't so we're not using it.
I finally got a monitor hooked up to my camera test box, and RPiCamGUI is pretty neat!
