Modular pi camera

---This is work in progress---

It seems that there are so many cases and stands designed for pi, but most of them are targeted for specific pi/camera

This is an attempt to make more of the parts reusable between cameras and boards

pysolid was used for generating scad files - all uploaded at github:

Basically it is a very simplistic camera mount directly on the pi with the following components

1. Board plate - front/back mounts for different boards. For now there are adapters for 3B+(should fit A and 4B). This could also be non-pi board, as long as CSI cameras are supported
2. Camera adapter - it uses the footprint and hole spacing of the new HD camera, centers the camera module. Is mounted on the board plate. For now i've done the Zero Flex Camera which is directly soldered on a flex cable and the most widely used cheap aliexpress camera which has markings rev 1.3
3. Lens ring - this is similar to HD camera, allows to mount CS lens or C to CS adapter as the case in the pictures. Made this to match flange focal distance that wikipedia had listed. Needs more testing. Optional, have to unscrew the built in lens if you screw C/CS lens
4. Mount options - TODO. This is not done yet but as a with the HD camera the idea is to be able to screw mounting module (probably gopro style as it seems easy to design/print and there are cheap adapters to standard camera mounts)

M2 is used on for all mountings(6mm,12mm, possible 16mm), except for lens ring, since I don't have m2 nuts at the moment. Probably will change that to m2 in the future

Somebody made webcam image that turns pi zero into webcam that boots in seconds. Could not get it to work at 1080p but works great at 720p

You might need to do lens shading calibration. I've only tried it with a macro lens and did not notice any problem
