So, DNG support now in trunk for all cameras, except:
 - g9 (DNG for g9?)
 - a590, ixus50(sd400), ixus75(sd750) - because DNG4PS2 don't support them
 - ixus40(sd300) - due to mismatch in RAW size between CHDK and DNG4PS2 (what RAW size is correct?)

FWIW:
I have the Ixus 50 and it and the Ixus 55 seems to be basically the same camera. The DNG4PS2 Windows Beta does support the latter. I tried that profile and the results are as good as can be expected. YMMV.

if a badpixel.bin was created in camera, it *should* also contain at least the platform id of the camera it was created in. and if loaded, should be matched against the platformid of the camera that is loading it. people who swap their sdcards between different cameras will get wrong results if there isnt a precaution coded like this (even people who swap cards between same models, but i guess we cannot detect that).

Keep up the good work.

The suffix .DNG seems not possible.
Is the prefix DNG_ would be possible?

Thank you

Yea, although serial number would be better, people are using SDM with multiple cameras of the same model after all.

oh, can we access the s/n number? i guess it is in the params somewhere. yes, serial number would be better than platform id.

Hmm.. I thought it was written in EXIF MakerNotes (and thus obviously accessible... those who've been working on DNG might know?) but on a quick check with exiftool I couldn't find it.

A serial number is visible via USB (e.g. in lshal output on Ubuntu), but it's true that this is something that could be written inside a USB subsystem and not easily accessible to us. But that's one way of getting the number so one can search for it in-camera.

Possible, but this changes behavior of the camera delete function. See Some notes on file prefix and extension treatment
Don't forget what the H stands for.

I have a big bug with the last firmware revision (613).
If i delete a picture, only the jpg is delete, the CRW is always in th SD.
Purge raw work but reboot camera doesn't work.

I take it we won't be seeing the .dng extension in our options for a while?
