edit] Q. What camera models are supported by the CHDK firmware?

CHDK/FAQ - Scratchpad Wiki Labs - Free wikis from Wikia
In theory it can be modified to support any camera based on the DIGIC II platform. (How do you do this?) DIGIC III (G7, A570IS, S5IS) is not supported. It might be possible, but reverse engineering takes alot of time, and nobody seems to be working on it right now.

CHDK/FAQ - Scratchpad Wiki Labs - Free wikis from Wikia
Copy the files PS.fir and DISKBOOT.bin in the root folder of your SD card if you not already have done so. If the camera reports that the SD-card is locked: Do not care about this message, the camera is still able to store pictures on the SD-card. Note: Unfortunately, autoload does not work with FAT32-formatted SD-cards. This means: cards up to and including 2 GB will work, cards larger than 2 GB won't. Note2: 4 GB cards can support the autoload feature if they are formated in FAT16 manually.

CHDK/FAQ - Scratchpad Wiki Labs - Free wikis from Wikia
create a file called ver.req in the root directory of your SD card. Be sure to save it as all files and not text. ver.req is just an empty dummy file. One way to create this file is to switch to dos-mode and type "copy con ver.req" <ENTER>. Then press "Ctrl+z" then <ENTER> and the file is created. Copy it to your SD. Another way to create this file: make an empty text file with Notepad and rename it into "ver.req".

The Land List -- Frequently Asked Questions
For much of their history, Polaroid has had separate camera lines for their home (North American) market as opposed to the rest of the world. Sometimes these are actually the same cameras sold under different names (i.e. Spectra vs. Image cameras), and sometimes they're different cameras altogether. Note that some North American camera models were also sold elsewhere, while the converse is not true.
