Effortlessly Connect Multiple Devices

4x USB 2.0, 2x DC12V 10A, 1x USB Type-C

USB 2.0 ports for your focuser, filter wheel, and mount; DC 12V 10A input/output ports for reliable power; USB Type-C port for fast file transfers—you can focus on capturing stunning images without worrying about connectivity issues.

256G eMMC Storage: Ample Storage and Stability

With 256GB eMMC storage, the ASI585MC Air allows you to capture multiple targets with ease. Rigorously tested with over 300 benchmarks, it ensures system stability. Plus, the USB 2.0 ports support up to 1TB external storage, giving you plenty of room for all your astrophotography needs.

Starvis 2 4K Sensor

Image Sensor Technology Beyond the Human Eye’s Sensitivity

Equipped with the upgraded STARVIS 2 image sensor, supporting a higher dynamic range. With this technology, the sensitivity and signal-to-noise ratio of the ASI585MC Air are greatly enhanced, delivering exceptional image quality.

No Amp Glow

The ASI585MC Air exhibits zero amp glow, which ensures extremely clean dark-field images. No matter how long the exposure and how the gain value, you can easily capture high-quality astrophotographs.

Note: It is implemented directly at the hardware level; it does not require software control.

Dual-Band Wi-Fi for Stable Signal

Experience unparalleled connectivity with our enhanced external dual-band antenna, supporting both 2.4G and 5G frequencies and offering stable and smooth usage within 20 meters.

Note: 2.4G has a longer transmission distance but slightly slower speed compared to 5G. The 20-meter range is based on multiple tests of the 2.4G frequency in open areas.

Get Full Control of Your Entire Rig at Your Fingertips

The ASI585MC Air incorporates multiple ZWO patented technologies and allows you to shoot simply by connecting your phone. It supports App OTA updates, continuously improving the product features, making astrophotography easy and fun, while enriching the user experience.

Instant Post-Processing and Sharing

Live stack is supported during your imaging session. You may also make adjustments to brightness, contrast, and others on the final image. Instantly share your masterpieces on social media platforms and astronomy communities, making your work stand out.

Low Read Noise, High Dynamic Range

The camera has a built-in HCG mode, which can effectively reduce readout noise at high gain and allow the camera to maintain the same high dynamic range as it does at low gain. When the gain is 252, the HCG mode is automatically turned on, and the dynamic range reaches a level close to 12-bit. The readout noise is as low as 0.7e.
