raspistill returning file not found

Viewed 2248

I am trying to use the 64 bit version of raspbian (which can be found here: https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=117&t=275370

I downloaded it, installed everything, ran my updates and then switched on the camera. But when I try to run it, the PI just gives back

bash: /opt/vc/bin/raspistill: No such file or directory

When I do a ls, I can see the directory fine:

pi@raspberrypi:/opt/vc/bin $ ls
containers_check_frame_int    containers_test       dtoverlay-pre  raspiyuv
containers_datagram_receiver  containers_test_bits  dtparam        tvservice
containers_datagram_sender    containers_test_uri   edidparser     vcdbg
containers_dump_pktfile       containers_uri_pipe   mmal_vc_diag   vcgencmd
containers_rtp_decoder        dtmerge               raspistill     vchiq_test
containers_stream_client      dtoverlay             raspivid       vcmailbox
containers_stream_server      dtoverlay-post        raspividyuv    vcsmem

and when I look at the permissions, there are read/execute permissions for everyone:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 142397 Nov  1 16:25 raspistill

Im at a bit of a loss here - the file is right there, so why is it not being found when I try to call it from the command line?
