picam2 = Picamera2(0)


# Create a preview configuration with a specific size
config_0 = picam2.create_preview_configuration(main={"size": (590, 864)})
picam2.configure(config_0)

# Set autofocus mode to manual and lens position to 0.0
picam2.set_controls({"AfMode": controls.AfModeEnum.Manual, "LensPosition": 14})

# Start the camera
picam2.start()

# Wait for a specified duration (in seconds)
time.sleep(1) # Adjust the sleep duration according to your needs


# Capture a still image if needed
#picam2.capture_file("output_image.jpg")
timestamp = time.strftime("%Y%m%d%H%M%S")
image_filename = f"image_{timestamp}.jpg"
picam2.capture_file(image_filename)

picam2.stop()
picam2.close()
#picam2.stop_preview()
time.sleep(1)
return image_filename
