Some fun tools and games
batteries), then the camera will behave absolutely normally - nothing has been
(or ever is) changed, so the warranty is not affected.
4. How does CHDK work?
CHDK makes use of the microprocessor that controls the camera (every digital
camera contains a microprocessor) to act as a programmable computer that provid
es the extra capabilities.
5. What extra capabilities does CHDK provide?
The current set of extra capabilities fall into six categories:
a. Enhanced ways of recording images - you can capture still pictures in
RAW format (as well as JPEG), and for video images you can have increased recor
ding time and length (1 hour or 2 GB), and a greatly increased range of compress
ion options.
b. Additional data displays on the LCD screen - histogram, battery life
indicator, depth of field, and many more.
c. Additional photographic settings that are not available on the camera
by itself - longer exposure times (up to 65 seconds), faster shutter speeds (1/
25,000 sec, and faster in some cases), automatic bracketing of exposure, etc.
d. The ability for the camera to run programs ('scripts', written in a m
icro-version of the BASIC language) stored on the memory card - these programs a
llow you to set the camera to perform a sequence of operations under the control
of the program. For example, a camera can be programmed to take multiple pictur
es for focus bracketing, or take a picture when it detects that something in the
field of view moves or changes brightness.
e. The ability to take a picture, or start a program on the memory card,
by sending a signal into the USB port - you can use the USB cable to take a pic
ture remotely.
f. The ability to do a number of other more useful (and fun) things, suc
h as act as a mini file browser for the memory card, let you play games on the L
CD screen, etc.
6. What else should I know?
Developers around the world are continuing to add new features to CHDK. Beca
use the idea of using the camera's microprocessor is so flexible, various develo
pers have made different versions of CHDK, and new features continue to be devel
oped - for example, one version of CHDK has features assist in taking stereo pho
tographs, and even allows two cameras to be synchronized to take pictures at the
same time (with an accuracy of better than 0.1 milliseconds, providing they are
the same camera model).
