Raspberry Pi Camera Wrench and Brace

thingiverse

Do you have a Raspberry Pi Camera Module? Do you dislike the current focal length? You can make it manual focus by adjusting the lens. It is secured in place with some adhesive, so you'll need to break that seal to really play with it. Once the glue is broken, you can adjust the lens with your fingers pretty easily, but breaking the glue isn't the easiest task. You want to ensure that you hold the camera's plastic casing in place and only twist the lens's plastic parts. To confirm that I did the job correctly, I created a couple of custom pieces to make it easier. Unplug your camera, attach the support brace. Place the wrench on top of the lens until you feel it catch. Then unscrew.
