The ZWO ASI 585 MC-Air Color is a revolutionary all-in-one solution for the demanding astrophotographer. Forget loose cables and extra modules; this camera combines a powerful recording sensor, an integrated guiding sensor and a built-in astrocomputer in one compact housing. Thanks to the innovative Air technology, you have full control over your DeepSky recordings without the need for an external laptop or ASIAIR module.

Dual sensor: Recording and Guiding in one
The heart of this camera is the Sony IMX585 sensor. It is known for its extremely high resolution (3840 x 2160 pixels) and complete absence of amplifier glow (Amp-Glow). With a pixel size of 2.9 mm catch every detail of planets, the moon and nebulae.

In addition, the camera features an integrated SC2210-CMOS sensor which acts as an autoguider. Although the stars in the far corners of the guiding image sometimes do not appear perfectly round due to optical metering, this does not affect the accuracy of the tracking at all. Your telescope remains rock solidly focused on the object for razor-sharp long exposures.
Wireless Freedom and Live Stacking
Thanks to the built-in Dual-band wifi (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz) and external antenna, you control your setup up to 20 meters away via the intuitive ASIAIR app on your smartphone or tablet.

One of the most impressive features is the Live Stacking. As you shoot, the images are instantly combined. This allows you to see the object on your screen live getting brighter and more detailed, with a significantly lower noise ratio. Adjust brightness and contrast instantly and share your results with the astronomy community immediately.
Powerful cooling for hot summer nights
Noise is the biggest enemy of a good astrophoto. That's why the ASI 585 MC-Air is equipped with a powerful Peltier cooling. This lowers the sensor temperature as much as 35°C below ambient temperature. Even during sultry summer nights, your recordings will remain clean and professional.
Key features:
- Starvis 2 Technology: Superior sensitivity even in the near infrared.
- No Amp-Glow: Completely even background with no disturbing glow in the corners.
- All-in-one: Built-in computer with 256GB storage and several USB/DC ports.
- High Full-well capacity: Prevents blown-out stars and provides tremendous dynamic range.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to test it yet, but based on all the online reviews, I expect to be very satisfied with it.
