Hello @Sule_akcy and welcome to the community :),

The STM32F7508-DK uses the Digital Camera Interface (DCMI) to connect with camera.

This DCMI supports:

• 8-, 10-, 12- or 14-bit parallel interface
• Embedded/external line and frame synchronization
• Continuous or snapshot mode
• Crop feature
• Supports the following data formats:
– 8/10/12/14-bit progressive video: either monochrome or raw bayer
– YCbCr 4:2:2 progressive video
– RGB 565 progressive video
– Compressed data: JPEG

You can used with STM32F7058-DK board a OV9655 CMOS sensor as mentioned in table 6. in AN5020.

This sensor is used and tested in this example: Camera.

May this discussion can help you.

Thank you.

@KDJEM.1 @mƎALLEm - why is there no User Manual for this board?

The only thing on the Product Page is the generic software tools manual - and that's long out of date:

This is the second question today about this board which should have been answered in the User Manual!

EDIT

I see that the board is obsolete - I hope you're not removing documentation for obsolete products?

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.

The recommended replacement, 32F746GDISCOVERY, also references that woefully out-of-date software tools manual - isn't it about time that was updated?
