Any update on this, please?
ASIAIR DSLR depends on libgphoto2. The latest update of this library (2.5.31.1) adds supports for the Canon EOS R100, R3, R8, R50 cameras. Will not be much of a stretch for the ZWO team to update their software to this latest library.
Any update on this.i am stuck buying ASIair mini as i am having R8. Atleast give a time line.
add my support for supporting the Canon R8!!!! ASAp Please!!!! And fix whatever the firmware problem that won't connect my AVX mount to ASAIR MINI, which I reported and requested a couple months ago. The ASAIR Mini is a useless paperweight otherwise.
Any update or plan for Adding R8. Please please add support. Or else will have to sell and go away from Zwo exosystem to astrostation or something.
Please add another person (me) to the R8 cohort. I'm just putting together my first astrophotography kit together and after all my research this controller is definitely the route I want to take. Are we getting closer? I see this thread started 10 months ago Thank you
I'm also eagerly awaiting R8 support so I can buy one and try it with my mini!
Unreal there is still no support for one of Canon's most popular cameras. Been recommending people switch to mini pc's and other solutions unfortunately.
Tech@ZWO May I know when the EOS R8 will be supported? If there are no plans current or future, I will be switching back to a laptop and not purchasing additional ZWO products as the prices for products in this closed ecosystem is a lot higher than other brands such as SVBony, QHYCCD, Touptek etc. Thank you.
VinceSees Sorry, this might not be doable anytime soon.
Tech@ZWO I have also waiting for an update for the canon r8. I haven’t done Astrophotography in about 10 months because I can’t use the r8. I have a 10 year old camera that isn’t really good but I’m thinking about selling all gear due to the hassle of use such an old camera. Not Cool.
I also have an R8. You guys need to get your act together with one of the most popular cameras! I hate to think I wasted $500 plus on a paperweight. Thanks.
9RcjODum while I do agree that ZWO should have a timeline to add support for the R8 - you can't blame ZWO for you not checking the ASIAIR was compatible with your equipment before you bought it. That's on you to "get your act together".
The compatibility table is on their website for the product: https://www.zwoastro.com/product/asiair-plus/

I would definitely like to be part of a beta release for the Canon R8. I’ve tried different software with my r8 and failed. I would love to use your software with the camera. I have tried to find a different alternative by just taking the photos alone on the camera and the mount and guide setup with the ASIAIR but it has also failed. I would love if you could please release a version ASAP that would work. I have serious been thinking about selling my ZWO equipment because of no support of this camera and don’t want to spend an extra $1000 on a ZWO camera.
Corsair please stop coping and pasting the same thing again. It really helps nobody.
9Ej7KtYy likewise buddy.
If you bought a product without checking compatibility, or you bought it expecting compatibility, that's all on you. Not on ZWO.
Corsair listen “buddy” stop trying to be a ZWO glazer. It has been over 2 years and no support. Canon has released brand new cameras and still nothing. ZWO is heavily lacking. I’m not going to buy another 1000$ camera just because they can’t do an update to support this. They make plenty of money to have like 2 extra cameras supported. And I’m not going to buy a camera that is just depended on how lazy ZWO team is and get outdated hardware. That is on them
9Ej7KtYy ZWO glazer? Hardly.
For all your posturing - you still bought a ZWO product with the full knowledge it didn't support your camera.
So no. Not on ZWO at all.
Corsair everything you post is straight up glaze. You glaze ZWO more than some donut place glaze their donuts. I looked at your page and it is full of glaze for ZWO. I had a ASIAIR running an old Dslr but I upgraded to the newest camera. I also do professional photography and Astro on the side. I’m not going to get an old camera just because ZWO can’t do a small software update. THAT IS THERE FAULT NOT MINE. AND ZWO CANT STOP ME FROM JUST SELLING THEIR PRODUCTS ETHIER. I’m not going to buy another camera just so ZWO can be lazy and not get their act together. And I’m tired of you being like a teachers pet but for ZWO. So if ZWO CAN NOT support a different camera then why do they have a business too. If ZWO can’t support this camera then tell me Because me and some other people most likely will be selling there gear. THATS IS THEIR FAULT.
