Expected behavior:
Takes image using the camera, at 8-bit pixel format, and prints the shape of the image.
Actual behavior:
Camera fails to take the image upon calling cam.snap(). Error message:

Further information
The choices for the enum "PixelFormat" for the camera was inspected:
raiseIMAQdxError("pixel format {} is not supported, only [{}] are supported; raw data readout can be enabled via enable_raw_readout method".format(pixel_format,sf_string))
ifpixel_format=="Mono8":
returndata.reshape(shape)
and added "Mono 8" to supported_formats on line 431, and modified line 435 to
if pixel_format=="Mono8" or pixel_format=="Mono 8":
and that fixes the problem. Note I could not test "Mono 16" because even though attr.values include "Mono 16" the camera doesn't actually support 16-bit image according to the camera spec sheet.
The temporary fix I attempted feels pretty hacky and since there are multiple possible ways to write the format name (uppercase, lowercase, capitalized, abbreviated, etc.), enumerating them all in if would quickly get overwhelming. This may be a single exception, but if it turns out to be a recurring issue, it may be appropriate to make PixelFormat objects that ensures any string representation of a given pixel format is supported, similar to how the path objects in python ensure compatibility between different OS.
