I have seen some rather nice pictures from people who use CHDK.  For
example, there are some nice scripts (etc.) available now that let a
photographer easily capture images of lightning bolts.

I'd love to try out CHDK myself, but the cheapie Canon camera that I
own doesn't work with it and I haven't had the time to contribute.
I have a friend who uses CHDK with great results.
