Hi
I am using Raspberry Pi OV5647 5MP camera with axon through adaptor. but image is very dark. and very hard to see any moment if i do on front of camera.
How to fix this?
Run below command :
sudo systemctl status rkaiq_3A.service
sudo systemctl restart rkaiq_3A.service
If it may required to install new package.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install camera-engine-rkaiq
I ran last two commands and restarted service
○ rkaiq_3A.service - Enable Rockchip camera engine rkaiq

Make sure that you have enabled one overlay only of the particular connector you are using.
Yes. only one overlay is enabled
what could be issue?
Use CSI0 connector, and let us know.
looks like there is a issue with the camera ISP
If you are using latest image, then it should be directly work.
For the debugging purpose send us the output of
media-ctl -d 0 -p
media-ctl -d 1 -p
media-ctl -d 2 -p
Make sure you should have connected only a single camera before running these commands.
Ok i will try this weekend and let you know
I am using CSI0 now and here is output of commands you ask for
vicharak@vicharak:~$ media-ctl -d 0 -p
