This is pretty cool-you can upload an open source modified firmware to many Canon point and shoot cameras to give you RAW compatibility, super high shutter speeds and more:

I noticed you used the Canon SD790 IS for the display picture of this article regarding ‘open source modified firmware’. I am in the market for a new point and shoot camera and was interested in this option for my new camera. However, after following the embedded link, I was not able to find the 790 on the compatibility list. Do you know if it is compatible with this option (ie. CHDK)? Is there a camera similar to this you would recommend? Thanks.

@whitney – I meant to use the Canon SD870IS for the image in the post since that’s the point and shoot model that I have. I’ve now updated that.

That said, I believe they should be adding the SD790 IS to CHDK soon.
