Will this work with octoprint or does it require raspberry pi OS?

Hello customer, please note that this imx519 camera can work with octopi, just refer to this link: https://www.arducam.com/docs/cameras-for-raspberry-pi/raspberry-pi-libcamera-guide/autofocus-camera -solution-using-on-octopi/

is the lens removable?

Hi, Just to let you know that the lens can't remove.

Which kernel/packages are required for this camera? i'm on linux 5.10.103 (march 8, 2022) on a pi 4 (4 gb), and vcgencmd says supported=1, detected=0.

Hello customer, sorry for the late reply, if you use the linux 5.10.103, you need to install the specific driver manually, please refer to the link: https://forum.arducam.com/t/16mp-autofocus-raspbian-buster-no- camera-available/2464/5

Can the focusing motor be programmatically controlled via I2C or otherwise? Or is this just an auto-focus that cannot be controlled?

The focus can be manually controlled and, as I recall, the driver package contains some scripts and examples to demonstrate the control API. Since no extra cables are needed, I assume it's just using the CSI cable's standard control channel (I2C I believe)
