Do you know if I can access the full 10bits of sensitivity of the ADC. I previously bought an OV9281 and was only able to access 8 bits, despite the camera being advertised as producing 10 bits. The extra 2 bits equates to a significant increase in the ability to detect defects. I think it is equivalent to a 4 times increase in usable sensitivity. (6dB).
When I ran the sample code from Github, I got:
After receiving an error, I ran the list_format command on the UC-599 board and received the response below.
Was the code sample you gave me intended to run on the UC-599 board?
Is the mode 5 only available on the OV2311 board?

When I tried the newest library for MIPI camera from Github, it gave me a similar response without mode 5.
Could I be doing something wrong? i tried rebooting, but that didn’t change anything.

Could you please help me on this issue?
