The A1400 does not have an adjutable aperture so Av override is not an option. Any variation in reported f-stop setting that you see in your images is a result of changing zoom position or the camera inserting a neutral density filter

Update : the issue with the focus window interference with the menus in shooting mode happens on most cameras and is currently a limitation of CHDK and not just for your camera. You will not see that effect if you do most of your setup work in playback mode. Also, turning off focus tracking helps.

okay i have tried every thing only video options are not tested not a video person but can test if you ill tell me what to test

every thing else seems to be working fine on RAW camera get really slow but i think its cause of camera hardware or memory card issue

and also camera freezes other then that every thing that i tested worked

still auto focus window is showing off making menu hard to read some times

Nafraf this test version will expire in 5 days any chance i can get a permanent one

Hi!

I'm also interested in testing CHDK in my A1400.

Can I have the a1400 version too for tests?
what should I do to compile it, just add
http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/nafraf/chdk/loader/a1400/
http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/nafraf/chdk/platform/a1400/
to my project and compile it?

Yes, add those directories to chdk source tree, then "make PLATFORM=a1400 PLATFORMSUB=100b"

hello,

a friend got the a1400 and I had a brief chance to play with it (weird camera!)
You may want to _remove_ these defines otherwise it crashes while set_zoom()--ing..probably a leftover from older ports? (First and atm only issue I found...I'll see if I can keep the camera for a few days and test more though...even if my time to play with chdk is near to zero

)
