SanDisk 64GB microSD Card
The default storage option for a Raspberry Pi is its microSD card.
The result can often be lost data, which is difficult to recover from flash storage.
Note that it is worth registering the card for the 10-year manufacturer warranty.
Meanwhile, the camera module draws from the Pi’s power source along the ribbon cable.
As the name suggests, this uses the PoE method to power the computer while providing data.

This is then connected to the Pi via USB.
