Raw 12-Bit Pixel Data from AR1820HS

Raspberry Pi Cameras mipi-camera-modules

The product page for the Arducam 18MP AR1820HS states that the image sensor has an ADC resolution of 12−bits; however, it appears that the libarducam_mipicamera.so library doesn’t support the full 12-bit resolution. When I capture a raw image, the output is only using 10-bits per pixel. Is there a way to get the full 12-bit resolution?

Thanks for the help,
Mark
