This is how your double-posting causes confusion.

You have said in the other post "Sorted! I was not using the latest DiskBoot file! Works fine now."

Does that mean the above script works ?

Yes the above script does indeed work.

Thank you very much for porting the A430

And I have a question: why isn't the a option to set the aperture? is it not possible, or you just didn't get to it? Or I just didn't find the setting.

Hello & welcome, ewald !
why isn't the a option to set the aperture? is it not possible, or you just didn't get to it? Or I just didn't find the setting.
The A430 do not have a real aperture (iris diaphragm), a ND filter is used instead, you can control the ND filter with CHDK...

@cacharrin
Do you see        BRACKET: +/-
               TV:2EV

on the OSD ?
You should see this when you switch to continuous or custom timer mode...

Don't forget: with the default setting Clear Bracket Values on start [ ] the settings will be disabled after you power off the camera...

I don't see it in my OSD.

Some other ideas?

Thanks

I don't see it in my OSD.

If you don't see it, it's not active.

Either you haven't set it up correctly or it's a bug in the A430 port; since i don't own a A430, i can't test this by myself...
With Tv bracketing enabled in the CHDK menu - do you see the OSD when switching to continuous mode (normally this comes before or after the custom timer mode) ?
Do you see the other CHDK OSD symbols, e.g. the battery OSD, while testing ?

Hi all. :)

I have an A430, working well with the latest build - thanks to all who have made this happen.

I would like to help with further A430 development, however I will need to get up to speed again with C and a bit of ARM.
Can anyone point me in the direction of what is a priority with the A430 development, and possibly supply the dissasembled firmware (as I am a bit lazy!)
I would assume that looking at another models firmware & chdk code would speed up my learning - is this right?
Cheers in advance,
Deefa.

Hi,

Nice work on the A430 - bringing some life back to an old camera, thanks.

I cant seem to read the raw files.  I managed to take some, but I've tried dcraw and rawtherapee (which uses dcraw, so no real difference i suppose) and they dont read them.  Is anyone successfully doing this - if so, how.

The build info from the CHDK i put on the camera is
CHDK Ver CHDK 0.9.8
Date: Jul 5 2009
Time 18:38:54
Camera a430
FW Vers 100b
Compiler gcc 4.3.3

Is this the latest?  I was somewhat confused what link was really the latest but i think i took the right one.

Cheers,
strawdog
