Ok guys suggest me a good tripod which can handle good weight.

Use it at your own risk. Other than you, Prashant do have this model. And I guess he had tried CHDK.

It's still in alpha stage. You can wait till beta release at least. And when you try, don't put your camera on stress test like opening the shutter for hours.

Cute boy, colourful and neat and clean photograhs, wonderful blue wall.

In Manual mode, you can adjust exposure by changing shutter speed. The screen also shows a exposure assist scale. Using it you can take bracketed shots... I've done it many times

1.) The current build is quite good... Although it crashes
2.) Shutter speed > 2mins gives useless shots 100% of the time. However I did >1hr star trails by stacking images. Wherever there is will... there is a way :)

I suggest everyone to embed their photos rather than attaching them.... becomes a lot easier to view them :)

IQ is so good Prashant... Awesome... I am sure SX240/260 owners are proud and happy that they did bought this. One helluva compact. I have been active in this forum for about a year. As far as I remember, based on the photographs shared here in this thread FZ150 and SX240 are the best compact cameras (so are the guys behind the camera).

@nac IQ is better than what is reflected by the pic. 1/2sec handheld exposure isn't the best setting to use. But I got the shots sharp enough for posting

Guys, I had a question. Is it possible to have an exposure time of 1/1000000 sec.??? I'm baffled to see a few images taken from my cellphone are showing this much exposure time.

Screenshot of my windows explorer which shows some details:

To confirm this, I downloaded EXIF Data Viewer from www.exifdataviewer.com, and that utility also confirms it. According to it,

Exposure Time: 1E-006 seconds
Shutter Speed: .001 milliseconds

Or is it simply a bug in my phone's software?

But, then it would have been for all the pics I took from my cell, or atleast in pics clicked with a particular camera setting, right? The issue is coming for a batch of photos (~9-10) I took consecutively. The first pic in the batch, I took was 1/1000 sec., (I've got many of these with my cell), and the rest were 1/10,00,000 sec., Apart from this, the other pics I took before and after are just normal.

Assuming your phone's shutter is tiny ~ 1mm... the speed at which your shutter moves will be 1000m/s ... Mach3 speed...

On a serious note... this is possibly a firmware issue/Symbian issue

somewhere i read that cell phone uses an electronic shutter rather then a mechanical shutter. The software continually take frames thru camera and when you press the button it simply 'keeps/saves' the most recent frame. sorry, can't give you reference site or link for this.

just wait .. :D Exif shows my BB takes 0 sec exposure time and not showing shutter speed, xperia took 0.2 sec exposure with 200.3 millisec shutter for night shoot and 0.0025 seconds exposure with 2.507 millisec in day time whereas CameraPro took 0.008 sec exposure and 8.032 ms shutter.
