Canon P&S and CHDK

[tochak]

For those of you interested in RAW format photography with your Canon P&S check this out:

http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK
http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ#Q._Wh...DK_firmware.3F

You need to have one of the Canon Point and Shoots listed on that site for CHDK and the RAW format to work (currently Canon A560 is on sale all over the place for $149 and is compatible with CHDK).

Sounds like pretty cool s/w upgrade.
Too bad they don't (yet) support the Powershot line of cameras.

Here's what they show supporting (Camera model wise)...

A610 fw v1.00e
A610 fw v1.00f
A620 fw v1.00f
A630 fw v1.00c
A640 fw v1.00b
A700 fw v1.00b
A710 fw v1.00a
S2 IS fw v1.00e
S2 IS fw v1.00f
S2 IS fw v1.00g
S3 IS fw v1.00a

Hopefully they will add additional models over time.

Thanks for the link!
