PowerShot S5 IS

The Canon PowerShot S5 IS is a 8.0 megapixel bridge digital camera.

CHDK is available for the S5 with firmware versions 1.01A and 1.01B from the Download page.

This camera has CHDK multi partition support for booting but does not include the CHDK UI multi partition menu items.

Reviews and Specifications

The S5 lacks an intervalometer, even though the S1, S2, and S3 have one. The closest thing it has natively is a "custom timer" -- a timer that will take multiple photos. Use a CHDK intervalometer script to add this feature.
RAW samples have been submitted to rawsamples.ch and are also available for direct download [1].

Pressing DISP twice more (still holding SET) returns this additional block:

The upper block and additional text are the same as with 1.01A, though. (Timestamp changes, of course.)

Another camera with 1.01B (American-bought) returned a timestamp of Jun 14 2007 20:11:19. Note that this is the same timestamp as the European one below.

-== Installation ==
-S5IS CHDK does not have PS.FIR, so you'll have to follow these steps:
-* Make sure your card is 4 GB or less. Bigger cards require FAT 32, which requires [http://chdk.setepontos.com/index.php/topic,255.0.html some extra-special steps] to boot directly.
-* Format your card as FAT 16.
-* [[Bootable SD card|Make the card bootable]] using the instructions for your operating system.
-* Create the MISC and DCIM folders. (Not required as the camera creates these itself)
-* Drop the latest DISKBOOT.BIN onto the card.
-* Lock the card using its slider switch.
-* Insert the card into your camera.
-* Turn on your camera.
-{{Notice|
-If your card is formatted FAT16, CHDK will already be loaded after turning on your camera, there is no need for using the "[["firmware update method" |Firmware Update]]"
-:menu entry to load CHDK. If it is formatted FAT32, you will need to keep the card unlocked and start the camera in View mode and select
-"[["firmware update method" |Firmware Update]]" from the menu.

-{{Notice|
-CHDK as of build 701 now has support for FI2 for the DryOS cameras including this one. Now, the camera can be updated as described to go
