What is best shield to use for standard USB cam 2 wifi

I have seen lots of articles about that the Arduino doesn't have enough HP to do video, and thats fine. I just want to have the Arduino tell another board to take a snapshot and send it somewhere as a link or....

Anyway, I am doing lots of low level Servo and bit twiddling, thats why the Arduino vs a RP.

So, what is best option to capture a snapshot with a trigger from an Arduino? The camera I am trying to use is a driverless, auto-focus, low light, mini-usb... a bit better than the standard ESP-32 camera. So how do I get an image from that to my phone under orders from the Arduino???

Connect the camera to a Raspberry Pi and let the Arduino trigger the picture by the serial connection (the same as you use for the sketch upload).
