-	==Porting to dSLR==	+	== Standard LEDs instead of photo-diodes ==
-	Hi! Are there any drawbacks in porting CHDK to DIGIC II based dSLR EOS 350D? Is it possible (and not done yet due to lack of interest or something), or completely impossible at this time?

-	Regards. gophi (not logged in)	+	I suggested using a standard LED instead of a photo-diode or photo-transistor in the main article but for some reason my edit was reverted. I wonder why. I'll leave the comment here and hope it sticks. If you try it and it works, put it back in the main article.

-	== A version for IXUS 50 (1.01a)? ==	+	I haven't tried this, but since most LEDs can be used as low sensitivity photo-diodes, any LED might work as a photo-diode. I would guess an LED of the same color as the LED on the camera would work best, and an LED with a shorter wavelength(closer to violet in the rainbow) than the LED used on the camera might not work at all. White LEDs might not work well as photo-diodes due to absorption by the phosphors, but I suspect that even they would work.
-
-	Is it possible to port CHDK to IXUS 50 (fw 1.01a)? Do you plan to add this model to the list of supported cameras? I'm very interested in it. Thanks.

Line 1:		Line 1:
		+	Instructions from homeshopmachinist [http://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/showthread.php?t=37569]
		+	I'm linking to the files he's hosting but you should probably check the dev[http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,4202.msg40072.html#msg40072] thread to see if there are more recent versions.
		+	Following are the instructions to perfrom the upgrade:
		+	------------------------------------------------------------------
		+	Make sure battery is FULLY CHARGED. Camera must be firmware ver 1.0.3
		+
		+	1. Format your CF card. Copy scanled.fir [http://ixian.ca/server/scanled.fir] to the card.
		+
		+	2. Insert CF to camera and run firmware update from the bottom choice of the 5th Menu setup screen. Screen will show "CF card containing firmware is required to update". Wait for blue LED to light steady. Wait another 30 seconds.
		+
		+	3. Turn off camera and take battery out and back in. Leave it off.
		+
		+	4. Insert CF card in card reader. Run Cardtricks[http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=4202.0;attach=3585] and select the CF card by clicking on the picture of a memory card. Format the card in Cardtricks using the format button.
		+
		+	5. Using Cardtricks make the CF bootable. Check "CF boot sector" at the bottom right of the Cardtricks screen and then click "make bootable." Cardtricks will tell you to switch on the 'write protect switch' CF cards do not have this, don't worry about it.
		+
		+	6. Copy the files in 350d_iso3200_spot [http://ixian.ca/server/350d_iso3200_spot.zip] directory to the CF card.
		+
		+	7. Insert CF in the camera. If the camera is booting from the card the Blue LED will flash.
		+
		+	To use the ISO 3200 function press INFO and you can change ISO levels from there by pressing the ISO arrow key. For spot metering press Menu and the DP button with the blue LED.
		+
		+	Blue led will blink and there will be a sound. Spot metering will be enabled.
		+
		+	-----------
		+	I don't know what the etiquette is here so below are older posts, if someone wants to clean this up more feel free.
		+	-----------
		+
	Great news!		Great news!
