Firmware info
Version
The trick with the ver.req file works on the A530 as well, with the following result:
Canon PowerShot A530 P-ID:3126 PAL Firmware Ver GM1.00A No error Dec 14 2005 09:32:59
pressing DISP button again results in:
Canon PowerShot A530 P-ID:3126 PAL Adj Ver.002.004
For Developers
- The platform ID (P-ID) of the A530 is 3126 (Platform codes for other models can be looked up under P-ID).
With respect to the platform id, the A530 fits in between the A540 and the A710, so possibly it is similar to those firmwares. (Firmware is very similar to A700)
Firmware flash
0xff800000: firmware flash data (probably) 0xffc00000: mirror copy of firmware flash? (to be determined)
LED addresses
0xc0220080: 0x46 enables orange focus assist LED, 0x44 disables it 0xc0220084: 0x46 enables blue print LED, 0x44 disables it

Development state
- Porting the A530 is done, the A530 is included in the trunk.
- The forum porting thread is here:http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,586.0.html
Old beta versions
- A530 Chdk 0.5 beta with usb-remote (This is the latest beta version NOT available for testing.)
