Camera support progress

I've been taking photos with the pinephone. Landscapes are ok!

A few notes from the point of view of a layman:
Most Linux cameras are USB devices, the pinephone cameras are, I understand, I2C. It is very, very different to the 'hundreds of cameras' currently supported by Linux.

The Raspberry Pi was sold for two years with a camera interface on the main board before the actual camera was released to the public.

The software development is almost entirely voluntary, Pine64 have only provided the hardware, and some of the proceeds of that have gone, or will be going to the volunteer groups that are programming the device support. The cameras in question require specific, reasonably niche, knowledge.

Nice picture!
