Running a Script - Exposure Bracketing

The CHDK allows you to automate your camera by running "scripts", small and simple programs written in a short-hand version of BASIC. There are scripts for exposure bracketing, focus bracketing, intervalometer and many more.

How to run a script

  • Download or write your own script and place it in the CHDK/SCRIPTS/ folder of your SD-card, (name and extention are not important).
  • Enter the script menu, load the script, adjust the parameters to your liking and leave the menu.
  • While still in <ALT> mode just press the shutter button and the script will start. A mini console will be displayed while you run the script.
  • Note:It's best to  set the Review parameter in the NORMAL camera menu to "off", other options like "x sec" or "hold" can will interfere with the execution of scripts.
  • You may interrupt a running script by just pressing the shutter button again. Or pause a running script by exiting <ALT> mode, if paused the script will resume right where it left off when re-entering <ALT> mode.

You can download pre-made scripts here:





  • User Written Scripts - Discussion ... Posts about: Writing your own scripts, comments about scripts on this page: problems, bugs, improvements, help converting them to other cameras, etc.
  • Links to Other Scripts Found on the Net!
If you have found any interesting scripts for CHDK out there in net-land, please share their links here. If enough are added or found we'll add another page or list them with the other user-written scripts here in CHKD-Wikiland.
