Hi. I'm a real newbie, please bear with me. I finally got CHDK to work with my
SD780. I had to search around before finding that running badpixel at least once enabled dng saving, now get some beautiful RAW's on this camera. GIMP works good with GraphicConverter on the Mac to see and adjust files. Can't seem to get Adobe CS4 to see the pictures unless I first save them as Tiff's. I've been trying to bracket shots, and with badpixel running, can get two sets of shots with different TV settings, but with badpixel the camera always takes two shots. What I get is two sets of three pictures, each set of three having a different setting. I've read that with continuous mode and bracketting you should be able to set, say, three shots, and have it bracket values, but can't seem to make it work yet. Is there a default lua script just to fire the camera? Might seem like a silly question, but lua scripts seem to work better than uBasic, can't get them to work at all, and yes, I have read through the post, I realize that little has been looked at there. I think if I had a lua script that fired the camera with a wait, to prevent movement, it would then go to the custom timer and do it's thing, then would bracket three shots. I'm not sure if that makes much sense, just a thought I had.
I find the menus to be very stable for the most part, found that I get really stable menu in review mode, or with a very short press to the power button, which also gives review mode, and if I change things there, it saves changes for the next time I fire up all the way, helped when I tried a script that put me into an endless loop.
Please let me say, to everyone working on this, AWESOME! Just the ability of getting RAW on this little camera is a great improvement to me. I appreciate the work you are all doing!
