If I want to have a wifi-capable pi, with a camera, what would be the first sensible hundred bucks to spend on acquisitions

Interesting timing of this question. Following on from my highly successful curtain controller, I am toying with creating a Raspberry Pi powered camera unit. Mainly for use taking pictures inside rooms to show the room well. So wide-angle is needed.

I was thinking of using a Zero 2 board and the new camera module and wide-angle lens - although this lens might be a bit too wide!

If you are interested you can find my previous Raspberry Pi project here -> Controlling USB on Raspberry Pi
Something that probably would not have been possible without lots and lots of help and support many good Monks.
