If you search this forum for discussions about CHDK RAW format, you will discover that Canon cameras do a lot of optical correction to each image before storing the image as a JPG on the card.  What you get with the CHDK RAW is the just that - the raw image before any processing.  The fish eye you are seeing is worst when you have the zoom set for wide angle - you can obtain software that will let you correct that.

Firmware 1.01A is now supported in the autobuild server - thanks reyalp for adding the update!  Also thanks to forum members gesualdo and zawin for testing out this version and reporting back to me with details.

Total time to do the port was about six hours.  Once I finish up the GUI for my tools I'll post them in this forum.  Porting across firmware versions is nowhere near as hard as starting fresh with a new camera - especially if you have never done this before.

IXUS120-SD940 owners - the last few updates in the autobuild server contain a number of bug fixes specific to these cameras.  Its probably worth your time to download the latest version and update your camera.

Firmware Dumping 1.00e
« Reply #436 on: 02 / May / 2011, 07:35:15 »
Hi there.

Congrats on the great work. I've got a 1.03B (working great) and now a 1.00e (not yet ported)

My plan is to creat a 3d SDM rig with the two cameras so a 1.00e port would be awesome.

I've tried using CardTricks to dump the firmware but it didn't seem to work - turned on in playback mode and the camera does seemingly nothing (a good thing I think) left for a couple of minutes.  CardTricks says no valid data and bintext shows no strings in empty.dum

What's the best way of dumping a 120IS?

I'm a C# developer with some past assembler and C background. I don't have much spare time these days but when I do I would happily get involved.

All the best.

@Trogg : Where in the world did you drag up a 1.00E ?

Hands down, this is what you need:

I  have not tried the latest version but text color was wrong on the original version so I did this, which should work for you:

Well, here's something I just happen to be working on.  The paint is still wet but you get the idea.  If it seems interesting and you want a prerelease copy them PM me and we can go from there :

Another beta release for firmware 1.03B - but this time I think I might have it fixed !   
Turns out we do  have it fixed!
I have version ixus120_sd940-103b-0.9.9-1114-full-rev3 successfully installed on my 103b. Now I am ready for tests. There seems to be quite a lot what I could test but maybe you're interested in some dedicated tests of certain things. Let me know!
I would suggest just using the CHDK features that interest you the most and let us know how that goes?  Bug reports are good - reports of success are good too.   Right now it would be nice to know which scripts (BASIC and/or LUA) are working well with the SD940 if you want to search this forum and the wiki for things to try out ?



I'll downloaded release ixus120_sd940-103b-0.9.9-1165-full_BETA on sunday. This fixed a bug of ixus120_sd940-103b-0.9.9-1114-full-rev3 where image numbering started from IMG_0001 every time I switched the camera on by creating consecutive folders like "134___04", "134CANON", the next time "135___04", "135CANON" and so on. Manually loading CHDK, using the "PS.FI2" file now also works like a charm. Keep up the good work!

Battery is always showing up as 0%, red, and empty.
Using the latest release (downloaded today 0.9.9.1176).
Firmware is 1.01A.

is there a fix for this/are you planning on fixing it?
