More cameras originally crippled..
You can now do anything with just your P&S camera...
CHDK's motion-detection routine is even fast enough for lightning photographs...
Something that they thought nobody would ever be able to do...
Part of Canon's "let's find ways to force people to buy
DSLRs" marketing campaign....
it doesn't get simpler than that....
Here's the page for the new S3 IS version!
any simple electronic switching circuit in existence!
a simple way to test if it's (sic) working.
just when you thought it couldn't get better it happens again!

This is like getting a new camera every week, for FREE!

The superlatives, grammar errors and rantings of a ******.

If this thing was promoted by anyone with credibility, I might have
given it a try.

I pity whoever wrote CHDK, because this turkey of a thousand
identities is going to sink it single-handed.
(well, it's just the one hand in all those socks....)

Ah, the power of the written word. Being able to self-filter out those that
don't deserve something as nice as CHDK. It's wonderful how much power that
written words can have over others stupidity! LOL!
