vk2him isn't the one, it's me with the problem. I tried increasing the script time to 60 but it didn't change the timing at all for the script. However, adding the 'sleep 3000' worked perfect. One question though... why is the formula '2*a+1' used vice '3*a'? I realize it's not going to save any time, I'm just curious.

Thanks for all the help!

I have a 620 w CHDK installed. Great item and thanks to all involved with development etc.. I loaded this
script in my CHDK scripts folder, went to load it, it shows as Simple Bracketing.bas but to the right of
the name it shows 4 question marks and will not load. I wondered if someone can help me figure this out?
 Thanks carp

I'm currently using this script but have a question about the last parameter, EV Correction in 1/3.

What exactly is this suppose to do or what is it used for?

can anyone help me? i use SD1100 IS and already edited the script to suit DIGIC III

every time i ran the script in my camera and start the script by pressing SET it will snap the first pic
and froze until i stop the script by pressing the shutter button.

I have a SD880 IS Digic IV and seem to having some difficulty running the script properly. When running the bracketing script it will take the first picture but then just stops with the last picture being displayed on the screen.  I was hoping it would take 3 consecutive pictures at 0 -2 +2 and when reviewing the pictures to see the exposure difference info in the display.  Any help much appreciated.

Under bracketing settings I have:
Number Images -1)2   1..1 [   3]  (I'm guessing this means three consecutive pictures)
Step Size (1/3 EV)       1..1 [   2]  (I'm guessing this means a difference of -2 0 +2 exposure setting)
Correction (1/3 EV)   -12..1 [   0]  (I'm clueless what this does)

Any help much appreciated.

I'm not sure about this, it's probably simple but can you tell me why you are using a script rather than bracketing in continuous
mode (in extra photo operations). 
A720IS.

I find the script with with my previous SD870 took clearer pictures free handed without the use of a tripod.  By pressing the button in bracketing in continuous mode it seems slightly more blurry.  It just helps when I don't have a tripod with me at the time.

you don't need to use continuous; you can use the custom timer and set it for several shots; the continuous bracketing settings apply to these as well.

Yes but this requires more setup time.  Even in continuous mode you must guess when to release the shutter button as the camera takes a fairly rapid 1.4fps (SD880) letting ago exactly after 3 shots is difficult sometimes its 4 shots and sometimes just 2 shots.  The script obviously would do it correct every time if I can get it working.

In any event if anyone can offer some info on how to fix the bracketing script for the (SD880) that would be helpful.  I've posted the script below as reference.

Cheers and thanks for the info.
