"The camera comes with a subset of CHDK, I think, as all I was interested in was the remote triggering. The trigger I am using is the PWM CHDK trigger and it works quite well. I have not looked at the camera's scripting ability, and in general…"

"There are a lot of setting to fine tune on the camera and I have squibbed out and left that to the surveyor who is going to use it. In it's default settings on auto it was overexposing the shots and producing white a bit of motion blur. The…"

"Thanks ... 3 seconds still is more than the 2.3sec I have now with my cheap 12MP canon. Is the CHDK v1 delivered by Ricoh? I can not find it back at the CHDK reference website: http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/CHDK? Also is scripting (typical coded in…"

"Mike, Although I have not used this camera myself, it seems to be rated pretty well.  I wonder if you can play with the settings to "handle" the motion.  The higher the shutter speed the better for motion, so you can lower your…"

"Hi Mike, I am interested to buy this camera for aerial mapping. Can you point me towards the CHDK firmware version for this camera? Also, what is the minimal time interval between 2 pictures? They define 5 sec in the specifications, but this must go…"

"The usb cable and the video cable both plug into the same port but are different connectors.  They use different pins in the connector.  You cannot use the usb and the video at the same time as I found out.  I send it…"

"I have an older Canon point and shoot camera with CHDK on it (SD750). The problem I experienced with it is it won't allow video out and the usb port to be used for triggering at the same time. When I hook up both, it keeps taking a photo every…"

"Neil, thanks for sharing your progress. Regarding the ISO setting, auto mode versus manual mode settings.  The ISO setting I would set as high as possible, on this camera I believe it is 3200.  These sensors will be able to handle the…"

"Here is a pic that I shot a min ago.  The s95 is doing good so far.  About half the pics are usable.  I think I can increase the usable ones by playing with some camera settings."
