Before I start I'd just like to say how great the CHDK software is. I am however having a problem with the RAW files that the software creates on the sx220. Basically, Although with a bit of fiddling I can open the DNG files, the DNG images look dark and of much lesser quality than the eqivalent canon standard jpg. I have tried following 'msl's advice (above) using DNG4PS2 but the images again appear dark and fish-eyed. Is the difference in quality likely to be correction software run by the camera or am I doing something wrong with the raw files? Any help much appreciated.

PowerShot SX220 Firmware 1.01C

« Reply #461 on: 24 / January / 2012, 14:06:45 »

Hello
I just want to ask if someone is currently working on this firmware version (1.01C). I'm asking, because I have not the expected results (using the 1.01B version) regarding mainly shutter and aperture overrides.
If I am supposed to do something from my side, it will be a pleasure to help.
Thanks.

Hello everyone!
I just bought an SX220HS a month ago. It has 1.01C FW. Can I run 1.01B CHDK FW on it?
Thanks

1.01C owners please upload the firmware dump using the Universal dumper script from the CHDK wiki page and post the link. Thanks.

Thanks. I made a hex comparison between 1.01B and 1.01C and both firmwares are exactly the same except the version name and build date.

Hi funnel
after testing I cannot override shutter speed (need to have speeds up to 1/10000). I have the 1.01C version and use 1.01B CHDK. Where to look for? The aperture can be closed up to F11 sometimes, but the shutter up to 1/3200 only.
Thanks

Do you think the 1/10000 is 3x faster than the 1/3200 ?

It is almost certainly hardly any faster.

In the past I used speeds up to 1/40000 (freezing action with flash in black environment). So in my experience, there is a difference between 1/3200 & 1/10000 or 1/20000. Thats the reason I bought this camera, to use it with CHDK. I all want to know if it is possible, with my camera...

How did you determine the max shutter speed? The EXIF data doesn't get updated below 1/3200s. According to my tests by looking at the histograms the fastest shutter speed is about 1/25600s.
