Black & white
I have commented a lot on the Buddy camera and now I have had enough. Image is always monochrome, no updates that make a real difference to functionality. 3.5k printer with a camera that is not fit for purpose. Tonight the buddy camera will be where it belongs, in the bin. Prusa don’t sell something promising updates to functionality because it is a great way to lose customers. Very angry.
RE: Black & white
I've also uninstalled my Buddy3D camera and gone back to a Raspberry Pi running Octoprint, with a Raspberry Version 3 camera setup.
This camera is great and gives a crisp clear colour image with autofocus, under average light conditions.
My Buddy3D isn't in the bin, rather back in its box, in the cupboard. I'm hoping that one day, Prusa will release the promised upgrades and address the lighting sensitivity so at least it will provide a good colour image in typical room lighting.
I like you am disappointed with the Buddy3D purchase as it is unlike Prusa to sell products which are not proven or ready for market.
