S100 Firmware Dump

[Digiman1946]

Hello all,

Purchased an S100 about a month ago and have dumped the firmware for it. It can be found here;

I hope I have done this correctly, if not, please let me know.

I haven't seen much activity on here regarding this camera, maybe someone will have an opportunity soon to work with the CHDK for it.

Thanks to all who contribute

The code at the start of the dump looks correct.  Its interesting that the dump is 16M - that's double the size of the S95's image.  But I guess memory devices keep getting cheaper.

Assuming you used the Canon BASIC dumper, did you see the load address reported on your LCD ?  Maybe 0xFF000000 ?  If not,  there should be a file called CBDUMPER.LOG on your SD card that has that information.

Its a new camera - typically nothing happens until somebody with development skills and too much time on their hands gets involved.   Standard disclaimer here :  CHDK FAQ : My camera isn't ported yet

I used the common_files.zip contents from the downloads page to obtain the dump along with instructions I found on the forums from philmoz.

I have the CBDUMPER.LOG file also on the card where the firmware is if it is needed. Just let me know & I can upload it also. File is very small, here are the contents:

Started
FF000000 dry

Perfect - now all you need is a developer interested in the camera.  Unfortunately, that could take a while.

Understood

Well ... it is that time of year again when it gets dark and cold in the Northern hemisphere....perhaps a developer is interested in digging out a beta build for the Canon S100.....certainly a top camera with loads of new fun potential....

I'm afraid that pretty much depends on a developer stepping forward who has some software skills,  access to an S100 and lots of spare time.
