CHDK Specialties
The Powershot N Facebook® Ready needs special steps when creating an SD card using STICK . See this link : Installing CHDK on a Canon N Facebook Camera .
If using the camera with a USB Remote Cable , be aware that the camera battery is charged via the USB port and thus may draw a lot more current than other Canon Powershot cameras. Existing USB remote trigger devices may not work with this camera.
For Developers
General Info
- the camera will attempt to autoboot (SD card lock method) when :
- the microSD card cover is left open AND
- the microSD card has "BOOTDISK" at the appropriate place in the boot sector for the card format (FAT16 vs FAT32) AND
- a valid DISKBOOT.BIN file is located in the root of the microSD card file structure.
- to enter <ALT> mode, quickly press the "wifi" button located immediately above the playback button
- the camera will start when USB power is applied to the USB port, in addition to the normal power switch or playback switch startup.
- when started via the playback button, the camera will not switch to shooting mode when the shutter button (ring?) is pressed. Shooting mode can be entered by a second press of the playback button.
