CHDK has to be one of the most innovative improvements to any camera that has ever come along since

the beginning of photography. Started out by some people who only wanted RAW out of their raw-

crippled cameras, it has now grown into one of the most adaptable, ﬂexible, and full-featured operating

systems of any cameras ever made. We are all extremely grateful for the work that everyone has put into

this arena of discovery, implementation, coding, sharing, camera testing, (especially with the unknown,

and possibly high risk), and those that provide all the information on the Wiki pages (and elsewhere in

the world). Those who have contributed to this great stride in the world of photography deserve a huge

vote of thanks.

Many thanks go to the original developers vitalyb,and GrAnd,ewavr,owenjm, Harvester, jeff666,

!CHDK Introduction

!! ! ! ®

Welcome to CHDK, for users of Canon Point and Shoot Cameras

Q. What is the CHDK program?

A.CHDK enhances the capabilities of your camera in a non-destructive, non-permanent way.

!After loading of CHDK program your camera will have the following extra functionality:

!•!Shutter-priority (Tv) exposure - via shutter value override feature

!•!Aperture-priority (Av) exposure - via aperture value override feature

•Shooting in RAW, with RAW Average, RAW Sum, and RAW Develop features,

!save as .DNG (Digital Negative for wider compatibility)

!•!Live histogram (RGB, blended, luminance and for each RGB channel)

!•!Zebra mode (a live view of over and under-exposed areas of your picture)

•Depth-of-ﬁeld (DOF)-calculator, Hyperfocal-calculator with instant Hyperfocal and

Inﬁnity focus-set, and more

!•!Battery indicator

!•!RAW and Video space-remaining gauges with custom low-limit alerts

!•!USB cable and wireless remote shutter release

•Motion-detection trigger - automatically ﬁres camera on motion detection. (Able to

capture lightning strikes.)

!•!Customizable high-speed continuous (burst) Shutter-based (Tv), aperture-based (Av) and

!!ISO-based exposure bracketing (unlimited shots)

!•!Focus bracketing (unlimited shots)

!•!Adjustable Video quality and size (compression) adjustable while recording

!•!Elimination of 1 GB video-size limit (for many DigicII cameras)

!•!Zoom during video function (for cameras without this feature)

!•!Shutter, Aperture, and ISO Overrides

!•!Ultra-long shutter speeds - up to 64 seconds (much longer for supported cameras)

!•!Ultra-fast shutter speeds - up to 1/10,000" and higher

!•!High-speed Flash Sync at all speeds up to 1/64,000 of a second

!•!Custom user-editable visible Grids for framing, cropping, and alignment

!•!File browser

!•!Text reader

!•!Calendar

!•!Games"

!•!Fully customizable CHDK display, info placement, user-colors, fonts in menus, etc.

!•!Custom CHDK User Menu (for instant recall of up to 10 favorite functions)

!•!Scripts execution - including exposure bracketing, focus bracketing, intervalometer, etc

!•!And other features too numerous to mention here.

These features work on all camera models supported by CHDK. The camera does not need to have

"related" or "inherent" features already present - CHDK will add the required functionality. New features

are accessed through CHDK-speciﬁc menus, rather than the default camera menus.

As CHDK is continually evolving, new features are often added. This means some of the listed features

depend on you using a version of CHDK that has those features.

Check out the Downloads page for information on ﬁnding the right build for your needs.

!!Go to:- http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Downloads

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Using CHDK

To Start – !Auto load method

!Cameras that have an SD card that has been prepared as bootable and is locked (write protected,

!with the slide tab on the side of the card), will load CHDK automatically when turned on. This

!is usually called the “Autoload” method, using a camera version speciﬁc ﬁle “DISKBOOT.BIN”

!The card lock is bypassed by CHDK and photos and video are able to be saved as normal.

!– !Manual load method

!When the SD card has a camera speciﬁc ﬁle, which for some versions is “PS.FIR”, and others

!“PS.FI2”, the card is left unlocked and then:

1. Switch the camera on in Play mode, not Record mode,

2. Press the MENU button, then press UP once (or scroll down the menu list)

3. An option to update the ﬁrmware appears, Select that option. (press FUNC.SET)

4. Conﬁrm the update, (OK-press FUNC.SET)

See:- http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Bootable_SD_card

!for instructions to make memory card bootable, and information on the loading process.

!The CHDK splash screen will appear for about 2 seconds, conﬁrming that CHDK is now running on

your camera. !(The splash screen can be disabled in Main Menu > Miscellaneous stuff)

!!!!!!!!!

<ALT> Mode

When <ALT> mode is enabled the function of certain buttons on your camera will

When doing this, ﬁrst select the menu item to be changed, then change the unit value with the zoom

lever / switch, then change the selected menu item.

directly into record mode, hold the On /Off button for approx. one second. When switched on,

pressing the shutter button full or half will switch to record mode from playback mode.

* Cameras with a Shortcut button can be conﬁgured in Miscellaneous stuff to use either, –

Shortcut, Flash, Timer, ISO, or Video buttons to enter <ALT> mode,the Shortcut button is the default,

press the button with a short momentary press, and for the original Canon function, press and hold

slightly longer.

When you enter <ALT> mode, the indicator “ <ALT> ” will appear at the bottom middle of the OSD. In

<ALT> mode you can now use CHDK Scripts, and also enter the CHDK Main Menu. When you have

ﬁnished customizing how CHDK operates, and/or using scripts, press the <ALT> mode button to exit

<ALT> mode. You can now use the camera to take photos or video, and it’s operation will be changed by
