How do you switch between taking colour or black and white images in asiair?

ASIAIR only capture the raw image when capturing

but it can save the preview image to your phone when you click save button

Hi - just to clarify - I'm using a 183C and still saving the preview file which is FIT - is Black/ White ? should this be - I don't see any manuals explaining or options to change the file format or enabling the colour which appears on the tablet to save into the FIT.

The FIT file will appear B/W, you need to debayer the image to reveal the colour. There are a number of options to do that but it depends on whether you have a single image or a batch and the depth of you pockets i.e. some are free, others will make a dent in your bank balance.
