Open source firmware replacement for your Canon point-and-shoot (powershot) camera gives you lots of amazing new features. This extensive post explains how to get:
- Long exposure times (up to 64 s)
- RAW mode
- Ultra fast exposure times (up to 1/100,000 s!)
- scripting(!) - e.g., timed photo capture -> long scale time lapse - a full scripting language to control your camera!
- exposure bracketing for HDR

This is an amazing looking camera. It takes panoramas by downloading vertical strips of image information directly to the connected PC. Besides, being automatically stitched together into a 360 degree image, the camera also captures 26 F stops of lighting information AND accurate distance information to every pixel in the image.
This video shows a demonstration and interview with Bus. Mgr. Peter Taylor.
I don't know how they accomplish the latter trick - they don't really have parallax information since the capture comes from a single lens.

One of the best Shuttle launch photo's I've ever seen. This one looks like it was taken using HDR techniques (not possible given the short shutter speed). For whatever reason, the photo exhibits really amazing dynamic range.
Quoted: Eliot J. Schechter/Getty Images - The shuttle Discovery lifted off from Kennedy Space Center.

These HDR (High Dynamic Range) shots of Hong Kong look like they were taken right out of a comic book).
