They expanded the lineup for the Camera Module 3 to include a standard (75°) and wide (120°) FoV lens on both the regular and NoIR (no IR filter) camera modules, and all variants use the Sony IMX708, which bumps resolution from 8 to 12 megapixels, and almost doubles the sensor size.
The most important upgrade is the inclusion of autofocus (using PDAF) with full support from libcamera and Picamera2. It is pretty snappy though not quite as good as something like a Pixel or iPhone.
There's also a new M12-mount HQ camera, for the same price of $50, which is useful for some more specialty lenses (though I haven't run into any M12 lenses in my own work!).
