Can i use both the USB and grove connection to supply power to the camera at the same time?

Yes, it is. But be careful that you must ensure the supply of USB and GROVE must be common-ground and the supply can not be too high. Otherwise, the power chip of M5Camera will be burnt.

Ah, there in lies the problem,
I was going to use the USB to draw power from the laptop and the Grove to draw power from an auxiliary battery pack.
