Hello,
Is there a way to control the apperture-speed pair values in P-mode, in order to control the depth of field? Thank you.
I'm using chdk on PS720IS.

You should use Av (aperture priority) mode if you want to set the aperture and let the camera decide correct exposure, or M mode to control both yourself. You can override the aperture in P mode using CHDK, but the camera auto exposure isn't aware of CHDK overrides, so you may as well use M in that case.
Don't forget what the H stands for.
