Hello everybody!
I do not think that this last change.

I began to compare RAW, received at the beginning initially work Diablo
https://chdk.setepontos.com/d/2654 (http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2654.0;attach=2506)
or http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2654.0;attach=2520]https://chdk.setepontos.com/d/2654/4([url]http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=2654.0;attach=2520[/url]) and has seen that he works through once:
1 raw was bad,2 raw - good, 3 raw - bad, 4 raw - good, 5 raw - bad e.t.c therefore that in these 2-h events of importance variables
#define CAM_RAW_ROWPIX 3720 // for 12 MP camera (SX110 IS)
#define CAM_RAW_ROWS 2772 // for 12 MP camera (SX110 IS)
there were take from camera Canon Powershot SX110 IS (12 MP)
Raw, received from https://chdk.setepontos.com/d/2654/3 (http://rapidshare.com/files/219956040/DISKBOOT.BIN) does not work quite since no such cameras with variable

#define CAM_RAW_ROWPIX 3648 // for 8 MP(? camera)
#define CAM_RAW_ROWS 2756 // for 8 MP(? camera)

I offer importances variables, taken from cameras G7 or Canon PowerShot A640
#define CAM_RAW_ROWPIX 3736 // for new 10 MP!(G7 or Canon PowerShot A640 or A1000 IS)
#define CAM_RAW_ROWS 2772 // for new 10 MP! G7 or Canon PowerShot A640 or A1000 IS)

Hi
I have A1000IS, version 100b. I tried to use the DISKBOOT and CHDK uploaded by Diablo so many times but failed to upgrade my firmware. I never had that option upgrade firmware. I read FAQs. Double checked my firmware. Downloaded all the Diskboot and CHDK from this forum and tried to use them but I am unable to load the CHDK. Can you guys help me in this. Really want to use CHDK. Thanks in advance.

I see Diablo's fileshare post has expired. Is there another location for the latest A1000is CHDK file to try?

Thanks

Sure, here ya go:
http://rapidshare.com/files/219956040/DISKBOOT.BIN

Any chance of another location or sending by email? to get a 250kB file off Rapidshare is impossible if you're not a member - I don't want to spend 7$ just for 250kB...

Hello Everybody-have a question!
Since i downloaded this version(from last post) ive been able to do:

Bracket Override
Zebras
Live Histograms etc.There is no Raw,motion detection etc right?
When i start my camera,i get screen with some googles on it 😀 not the standard Chdk logo.
When i turn teh camera ON i have some blue horisontal "taskbar" in upper screen.Asking this to see if this is normal?
This is ok for now right?
I have A1000IS GM1.00B firmware version...
Cheers 😁

Yes, that tells which shooting mode you are in, the zoom setting and the synchronisation delay for flash with two cameras.
In menu Stereo, you can choose the Compact header or turn it off.

In the Advanced menu\OSD Parameters, you can set zoom display to real focal-length, 35mm-equivalent focal-length, field-of-view in degrees or zoom-step number.

If 'zoom font size' is non-zero, you can also have a separate display of zoom value in very big letters .. you choose the size.

Use the layout editor to move the displays anywhere on the screen.

Thanks David!
I`ve got it all 😁
Now i understand all stuff.Expecting some RAW support soon from all you clever guys? 😀
I cant wait it! 😎

Edit/Modify:
Dont want to owerpost-i have to add question,do i need separate script in corelation with my chdk version for motion detection???

The link is still available, but RS limits the download slots for free users...a mirror is here: drop.io link.

Testing latest version for a week,all day long 😁
Noticed some bugs/errors so i want to share them with some more expirienced users(read genius).
So
Aperture override works just fine.
override shuter also works.problem is override focus.When i set it to ON and try to focus camera shuts down imediatly.
Also,after some time going through chdk menu,camera shuts down by itself(but green led is still working and camera is in freeze mode,only black screen).
Histogram works very fine in all setups,zebra also.
Another problem i noticed is,that after some time my OSD settings going reset,and except histogram,i have noting left on the screen from chdk.He is still there but zoom,battery,focus,and clock info functions that i set in menu,simply dissapear.
These are some problems i have during these days,so,because this is testing mode,i give you my experience for now!
Generaly,i am fascinated with this chdk and everything this marbelous guys achieved!Great work indeed!
Good bles ya all!

Yes, in Common_files.zip in the Scripts folder there should be MDFB-080914.bas.

If it is the correct version it will say at the top of the file "rem Modified to support 'show sample points' option and turn-off synch mode (SDM 1.82 and later)"

Just to be clear, are you testing CHDK or SDM version ?

David

bekisha

SDM sorry for missunderstanding..Talking about Sdm... 😉

I will look at it.
I would think the CHDK version does the same.
Probably an incorrect address for the focus function.

zoom,battery,focus,and clock info functions that i set in menu,simply dissapear.

With SDM in ALT mode, a brief press of the FuncSet button turns the screen information on/off.

Is that what you are doing ?

David

bekisha

Chdk also make same mistakes that i mentioned.Focus override error etc(all mentioned in earlier posts)>
David,yeah,my mistake FuncSet in Alt mode=Additional data On/Off
Sorry.I am newbie but understanding cameras and photography,so i decided to contribue in testing of a1000is chdk versions,so everything i notice i will post here if you guys dont mind. 😀

Microfunguy

Do not apologise for anything, we need people to test builds and report 'problems'.

I will look at the focus problem as soon as I can and report back.

Remember, the CHDK A1000 port was never finished so there may be other bugs.

Ok David 😎Is there any possability to expect fully workable CHDK for this cam model in the future,like for non DryOs cams?
???

Edit:when i set shutter override to values over 1/10000(aprox) when i focus,info on OSD reporting just 1/1600 and after that,no matter what more value i set,it says only 1/1600.When i go below 1/10000 than it seems ok.
Is that Canon software up limit in play mode(review info with details after taking a shot) 😐:

I do not know, someone would have to do it, I certainly do not have time.

no matter what more value i set,it says only 1/1600.

That is normal behaviour, the Canon firmware does not know the shutter-speed has been overriden.

The uBasic set_focus (or set_focus_to) command uses the same Canon firmware function as the focus-override option.
So, it will probably crash the camera.

After moving the lens, the focus-override function checks the focus distance using the same Canon function as the uBasic 'get_focus' command.
Let us test if that function causes the problem, run this script :-

@title Get focus
sleep_for_seconds 2
get_focus a
line_1 "#Focus ", a
sleep_for_seconds 5
end

Does it crash the camera ?

Hi

I'm new on this forum.
I have A1000IS fw1.0b.

I'm really trilled with abilities of CHDK and I would like to see it fully functional on my camera.
I believe there are a lot of people that would like it too, because I see there is a lot hits on this A1000 forum. Even much more than on some functional cameras.
Only people probably don't want to register so they don't post.
If you want CHDK to work on your camera please show some interest here and maybe we can get some developer to make it.
Because that's what we are missing, a developer.

I tried last Diablo's version.
Basically it works, with some bugs.
Main ones I noticed are that OSD menus stay on screen after exiting it, and this Focus thing.
When I get time I'll do some more detailed testing and I'll post results.

That's all I can do because I have no idea about programing.

I'm glad to see something is happening these last few days.
Hope we'll have fully functional CHDK and SDM for A1000 one day
Thank you all putting your effort in it.

@Microfunguy
I'd love to try this your script but have no idea what to do with it?

I edited A720 camera profile and used it for A1000IS. You just need to rename the camera(setting->camera options->cameraname, shortname) and change resolution(to 3648x2736 in both sensor size and jpeg size). With this I could get them displayed in dng4ps2 but after covert the images displayed were incorrect.

I followed this instructions and I do get picture with irfan view after converting RAW. It looks exactly the same as jpg but its bigger
