Raspberry pi camera module 3 not works only on libcamera

The Raspberry Pi Camera Module 3 is designed to work exclusively with the modern `libcamera` framework and its associated `rpicam-apps` (e.g., `rpicam-still`, `rpicam-vid`), rendering older `raspistill`/`raspivid` commands incompatible. If your CM3 isn't functioning with `libcamera`, the primary cause is often an incorrect or missing configuration in `/boot/config.txt`. You must have `dtoverlay=imx708` or `camera_auto_detect=1` enabled for the system to detect and initialize the IMX708 sensor. Outdated Raspberry Pi OS versions or kernel issues that lack the necessary drivers for the CM3 are also frequent culprits. Ensure your system is fully updated (`sudo apt update && sudo apt full-upgrade`) and running a recent Bullseye or Bookworm release. Additionally, verify the camera's hardware connection and confirm adequate power supply. Running `libcamera-hello` for basic functionality checks or `dmesg | grep imx708` can provide valuable insights into whether the module is being correctly recognized and initialized by the `libcamera` stack.
