    Anybody with a Canon Powershot should get this for it:

    Its incredible! So much extra functionality! You can install it yourself but its a bit tricky so if its too much effort for anyone I'm offering to install it for whoever wants it, for a small fee smile.gif. Scripts have to be gathered and put in the right place to get the desired extra functions. The correct firmware version specific CHDK is very important too, otherwise it wont work.

    It turns a really good camera into an absolute beast!

    30 minute shutter exposure is my favourite feature, way better than the 15 second limit that was on it.
    Motion detection script can capture lightning, how cool is that! :D

    It takes a bit of getting used to. To be honest if somebody can't work out how to install it themselves, they probably will find using it a bit too much, menus not very intuitive

    Doesn't modify the camera, just lives on the sd card and loads when the camera is turned on. Cardtricks installer is thing to use to set it up
