Raspberry Pi doesn't start

This weekend I had some time, so I thought "today I will get the weels running with Python". Instead this happened: I followed these instructions directly while connected to my Raspberri Pi: http://forum.plumgeek.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=6575 I ran raspi-config and tried Expand Filesys...

Re: Making pictures and videos with the Spirit rover

Sorry for the late reaction, stardusts. I was away for a while. According to the PiCamera documentation ( http://picamera.readthedocs.io/en/release-1.13/recipes1.html?highlight=start_recording ) there is a shutter_speed and ISO setting. Check the paragraph called "Capturing in low light" (...

Making pictures and videos with the Spirit rover

I'm having fun making the first steps using Python 3 on a Raspberry Pi. My first program was to make a picture with the picamera. It's really easy. I have used the steps from the Raspberry Pi website ( https://www.raspberrypi.org/learning/getting-started-with-picamera/worksheet/ ) Python 3 is alread...
