is anyone familar with the CHDK ..canon hack development kit ? im trying to find a way to have a shutter cable to avoid vibration during digascopeing ..shutter bug pro ? servo boards ? ..homemade USB remote cable ..?.. the closest major city for me is calgary alberta and i would pay someone to install and build or find what i need to make this work for me ..if it will work at all .. lol. any advice would be very helpful ..

What you want is something like this bracket that allow you to use a standard shutter release cable. Lot's of different variations on this. Google "camera cable release bracket" for ideas.

i have looked and i dont see anything i can buy here in calgary alberta .. iv phoned around and no one knows anything .. i guess im stuck with the timer for now..

CHDK runs on the S90, and does allow using a USB remote, but you've got to make the remote yourself from a USB cable, switch, battery and switch/battery housing box of some sort. It's probably easiest to put a USB socket in the housing box and use the normal PC connect cable between the box and the S90.

Note the point about being cautious with battery voltage.
