        Yeeesh that is dark - although even the pic with the normal camera is really dark. Much less contrast than I was getting, perhaps you do have a bad camera as the quality definitely shouldn’t be that poor.

          Hi Synthic, Please may I ask what module you used to display the PiCam feed in MagicMirror?
          Regards
