  • Hi, Nate, I also have Sx30Is, and I do everything setings like you, but my camera shoot only in jpeg. If you know the problem, can you tell me?

  • @xxxxxxxJIGSAWxxxxxxx Did you have any trouble installing and running CHDK? You need to be in CHDK mode. You need to create a badpixel bin and you need to select DNG formatting. Also you need to choose what folder to put the RAW files. They can be placed in their own separate folder or be placed in the same folder with the JPEG's.

  • @BigNate84 When I look at pictures from the camera, I do not see RAW files, but now when I transfer the file to my computer, there are RAW and JPEG files. :D Thanks! Cheers...

  • @xxxxxxxJIGSAWxxxxxxx Good work! Sounds like you got it.

  • @BigNate84 Yes, it is great!

  • The raw picture shows the sides of the lens as its raw, very raw, its what the sensor sees before the cameras 'jpeg' routines crop out the bit that you see, there's always more sensor than 'saved image' thats why the quoted specs show a larger pixel sensor size than the output file size, your just seeing the bit the camera normally throws away

  • @lezbriddon Hey thanks for the feedback. That makes sense to have more sensor than saved image size. Out of curiosity, do professional DSLR's experience the same results shooting in RAW? By results I mean seeing the inside of the lens at the corners. I wasn't sure if this occurred because I was hacking a consumer grade camera or if the top of the line DSLR's experience the same thing and require cropping when shooting RAW. Thanks!

  • @BigNate84 I think there do have more sensor than saved image in most, its model dependent i guess, and the sx30 no doubt shows it more as they are really stretching the optics...

    one thiing i have noticed is when zoomed out, the edges of the image show very bad chromatic aborations, take a wide angle shot and have a street pole at the ver left or right, then zoom that up in windows, it will have purple edges one side and green the other...

  • I'm thinking its named as a Motion detection script, good luck :-)

  • You will find the Lightening script on the CHDK Wiki, timings are crucial, get some info before going out, i ended up with nothing but learnt from my mistake, shame it hasn't lightened since 

  • I havent counted how many people i have recomended CHDK too, for Kap and Lightening i haven't found anything else as usefull :-)

  • @spex357 Oh cool! I haven't tried capturing lightning yet. What script do you use? Have posted any of your work yet? I'll just have to check out your channel now.

  • great tips, thanx man

  • @Okiss77 I appreciate the feedback!

  • Will do and I'll let you know how my experience was with it!

  • Hey I'm the first response! Never heard of or knew of RAW. Thanks for the lesson and info. I'm going to check this out!

  • @ChuckwagonCowboy cool man! I found out about it last year but never dabbled with it until I made this video. make sure you have plenty of memory on your memory card!
