You can use ImageMagick to correct the pincushion distortion (mostly), but after you have cropped out what is usable (Correcting pincushion distortion messes up the edges.), you don't have left many more pixels than you would have had from the older version 1 camera. After using this camera for a while, I went back to my old version 1 since it takes better pictures--both sharper and less distorted.
But it was out of focus. After still more searching, I discovered that the V2 camera is preset to "infinity" focus, but that the focus IS changeable. It turns out that the plastic funnel-shaped piece included with the camera is a tool for adjusting the focus, something mentioned nowhere I could find. You push it against the front of the lens and turn one way or another to adjust. Of course, you'll have to test a view after each adjustment to see the effect.
Once I got that out of the way, it worked very well, though the depth of field is rather shallow.

Update: seller said it was problem with raspbian v4 or RPI v4. So I build a new image on RPI v3. Same thing as shown in second picture. Works great in other resolutions, but not in highest resolution. My other cameras are fine. Still waiting for resolution. BTW, the frame rate is pretty good and pictures not to bad for a postage stamp camera lens, but the colors are off.
Update: April 21, 2020 Moved camera to RPI3 and RPI3B with older software. Same issues. Oh well. Will return under extended warranty.

For those having issues getting started streaming, simply open terminal and run the following command:
sudo modprobe bcm2835-v4l2
The is an "L" not a "1" by the way. It works perfectly. The screenshot attached is a picture of my raspberry pi streaming video over the internet on my phone while I was testing a new camera position for watching my 3d Printer.

The lens is manual focus and is incredibly hard to get a good grip on to twist it without scratching the lens itself. There are focus knob attachments you can print off and glue to the lens base, but it really is nothing more than a tiny piece of plastic that if twisted too far can cause it to dislodge entirely from the image sensor base, which invariably can cause permanent damage to the camera.
While it is a cheap camera, it is not a very good camera, giving only mediocre camera quality for its 1080p resolution. In reality, you’re just not going to be able to get very good images from this thing, as it’s meant to show off the special port on the RasPi, and not anything more. Oh, and get a 100cm cable, as the included cable is far, far too short.
For the amount of times I’ve had these fail, be prepared to be constantly replacing this, as it is incredibly delicate and tends to brick itself over time with no real explanation as to why. Even with anti-static wear, and extreme care taken to the electronics, it is just not worth it.

Un minimo di attenzione va data al collegamento fisico con il Raspberry, ma superato ciò la configurazione software è banalissima e con un semplice comando da terminale "raspistill -o image.jpg" per le foto oppure "raspivid -o vid.h264" per i video (senza virgolette) potrete già iniziare a vedere i risultati!
La consiglio in quanto ho già provato a fare progetti con webcam usb ma:
1) occupano piu spazio;
2)alcune non sono compatibili con le porte USB del Raspberry;
3)in alcune occasioni le porte USB non sono libere per poter collegare una webcam.

I use it with my motioneyeos and it works perfectly
Very great value for the price
I included a picture and a video from the camera so you guys can see the quality

Alles nochmal zerlegt und in ein Gehäuse gebastelt und das war es dann. was auch immer die Cam gekillt hat, EMP oder was mechanisches - für ein "Bastelsystem" scheinbar zu empfindlich und damit dann auch zu teuer für den kurzen Spass.
Ich habe die Cam noch mal an einen 3er Raspberry geklemmt - sie ist tot.
