The Asiair is a great tool in astrophotography. Thanks to it, everything becomes simple and intuitive. Your camera or astro camera can be controlled remotely, allowing you to stay warm at home.
 
Discover in detail the settings of the Asiair to configure as well as the processes allowing you to capture your astrophotography as well as your DOFs and mosaics without moving from your sofa. There are different types of programmable sequences depending on your activities. Indeed, if you want to show your loved ones the results of your shoot live, live mode will be recommended because it allows you to automatically stack the photos as you go. Conversely, if you want to program a mosaic or specific frames, plan mode will be most appropriate. You will also be able to take all your calibration photos that will be necessary for processing.
 
Automating all processes to make your hobby easy, comfortable and with breathtaking results is the best possible summary for the Asiair. Small, compact and light, it adapts to all setups and allows you to rest at night. 
 
We guide you step by step thanks to three PDF supports and three explanatory videos which will allow you success from the first release of your equipment under the starry sky.
