Cameras are now always on, to reduce the latency to taking a picture or scrubbing video feed. You’d need to wire the led to something tied to the data lines, perhaps.
- gtirloni 2y agoAny links you could share abouy someone confirming this?
- vanilla_nut 2y agoSource? This seems extremely unlikely to me, running a camera all the time consumes a fair bit of energy and they don't take long to turn on. Unless that's because they're always on? Regardless, that's a pretty strong claim. I'd love to learn more if you have a link that can back you up!
