I'm looking for some help from anyone with a G15 running CHDK. What I would like to know is whether is possible to enable / disable Dark Frame subtraction using CHDK on the G15? Has anyone actually tested it?The reason I ask is that the G15 code in capt_seq.c looks very close to that code for the SX50 and the CHDK hack to enable / disable Dark Frame subtraction does not work on the SX50 port.To test this is simple. Override the shutter speed to something like 10 seconds (using Tv mode or CHDK overrides) and take pictures with Dark Frame Subtraction both On and Off using the CHDK RAW menu.With Dark Frame Subtraction set to On (or Auto) when you take the picture, you should observe a 10 second exposure followed by another 10 second period where the LCD will state that the camera is "Busy". When Dark Frame subtraction is set to Off, you will not observe the 10 second period after the shot (i.e. the time when the camera is collecting Dark Frame information).I will be very interested to hear any results, good or bad.TIA.
I still have the G15 so i tested this: it looks like G15 suffers from the same bug, from the shoot button click to the camera being responsive again about 30seconds pass with Dark frame subtraction on and off

Is it possible to turn IS off in video mode?
Maybe it is due to rolling shutter or something else?

In Auto the G15 can also choose from six different stabilisation options: still, panning, macro, dynamic and power (when filming), or switched off when the camera detects it's mounted on a tripod or somewhere steady.

Sounds like panning mode should correct the problem you saw?

The release date of those cameras are the closest to the G15/SX50 of any ported camera but they are at least six months older.
