So, there aren't any examples of the quick camera interface that I'm
aware of, and even if there was it would require a custom board.

None of the quick camera signals are exposed on netwifimicrosd board.

What voltage to use depends on exactly where you connect to the GPIO
pin. I wasn't aware of any places on the netmicrosd board to connect
to GPIO.

The console-vx board has places to connect to GPIO.
