Did you reboot?

"cat /etc/os-release"
If it says Bookworm, then I don't know what you've done to stop it updating the firmware.
If it says Bullseye (or worse Buster), then you'll have to sort your own updates.

Whilst you're at it, run "uname -a" as well to get the kernel version.
Yes I did reboot. I have "Debian GNU/Linux 12 Bookworm, I got it directly from the Rpi Imager. And the kernel was 1:6.1.73, like the ArduCAM instructions said. I don't know how I have the latest kernel but the date said Oct 17, 2023.

I was finally able to get it working after doing the "sudo SKIP_KERNEL..." cmd. I can now take a photo at 64MP using the rpicam-still cmd at terminal. Which is a relief. The process broken down that I did to get to this point was:

1. get latest version of bookworm
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt full-upgrade
4. sudo reboot
5. sudo SKIP_KERNEL=1 rpi-update f51e83aa02a132177efcf18215fcf8924d7b039f
6. sudo reboot

Now the issue I am facing is getting it to work using a python script. I still get memory allocation errors trying to take a 64MP image. I am also unsure if I should be using the "Picamera2" library or the "Libcamera/RPICamera" to take a photo. I also read that libcamera is getting phased out and is being replaced by rpicamera, so I don't know of the implications of that as well. Here's a screenshot of the code I am using to try and take a 64MP image.
