I would like to share some jpeg vs dng test, done with
my SX240 with your SX260 firmware running on it (

).
It needs about 6 seconds to save on the 8GB class10 SanDisk Extreme card (not exactly measured).
It was not easy to find a RAW converter which is capable to work with the DNGs produced by the SX240.
In RawTherapee 4 and Capture One 6 there is a bad colorshift (mostly in the reds) and the jpegs look way better. Is this a general problem of all CHDK DNGs or only at the 240/260?
But then I tried lightroom 4 demo on my mothers computer - it likes the CHDK DNGs

( I would buy it, but I have WinXP at home-and it does not run on it-so I will have to look for another RAW converter

) .
There is much better range and tonality, see the attachment.
The Images are both processed in LR4 with same settings.
I have an additional question about the CHDK exposure functions of the SX260 firmware:
Is it a general problem that -for example- when you set the ISO to 50 in the CHDK menue the exposure will be too dark (the light metering does not know that it is set to 50, it thinks it is 100...and so on with other CHDK aperture and time settings) ? Or will it be fixed in future releases (I really hope future releases of the SX260 firmware will still work on my 240v1.0.0c

).
(My english is not the best, but I hope you can understand what I meant with the exposure question.)
Thank you very much. -
