Introducing the ZWO ASI2600MC-AIR; a lightweight, compact cooled color camera that uses two sensors for both imaging and guiding!  The ASIAIR2600MC Air also comes with an integrated 256MG ASIAIR for easy, Smart Control of your set-up, imaging, and processing!

Here are just a few of the outstanding features you will enjoy when you use the ZWO ASI2600MC Air for your astrophotography sessions:

Just think how much easier it will be to have an imaging camera, guider, and Smart Control all in one compact instrument?  Say good-bye to:

Main Sensor 

The Sony IMX571 features an APS-C format and 26MP total pixels. The size is 23.5mm in width x 15.7mm in height, and the diagonal is 28.3mm. The 3.76um x 3.76um small pixel size accommodates an impressive full depth of 50ke. With the new hardware technology, it is even extended to 73ke.

Guiding Sensor

The SC2210 sensor features very high sensitivity, which is why we also use it on the ASI220MM Mini camera. The QE peak value reaches 92% at 500nm. The read noise is as low as 0.6e. As the new generation of guide sensor, it has achieved great results in guiding, proved by hundreds of astrophotographers.

Effortlessly Connect Multiple Devices

The back panel of the ASI2600MC Air sports four (4)USB 2.0 ports for your focuser, filter wheel, and mount; three (3) DC 12V 10A input/output ports for reliable power; and one (1) USB Type-C port for fast file transfers—you can focus on capturing stunning images without worrying about connectivity issues.

Shoot with Confidence: Ample Storage and Stability

With a massive 256GB eMMC storage, the ZWO ASI2600MC 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. 

Dive into the Rich Details of the Celestial Targets 

In expanded mode, the full well capacity of this camera reaches 73Ke, which is 1.46 times of that of the IMX571 sensor (51ke), making long-exposure shots less prone to overexposure. The large full well capacity and high dynamic range make capturing both light and dark areas with stunning clarity and detail possible. Witness the miracle details and colors of targets like never before!  Check out this beautiful image by Ian Barredo, taken with the ASI2600MC Air!
