One of the many functions it adds to your camera is the ability to do long exposures. Up to a minute long last time I used it. They may have been able to extend that time.
This means you can take multiple images, with your camera on a tripod, and stack them in Startrails.de and make time lapses and star trails. You can do that already with 15 second exposures, but 1 minute is even better.

Oh My Gosh, got CHDK (Canon Hacking Development Kit) onto my dslr camera and now i can do exposure times up to like 1000 seconds or something like that. Now i can to RAW files and start processing my images. Want to learn more about this program. Can some people give me some links. Hoping to als get a tripod from Ebay so that the camera doesn't shake or anything. Thanks guys for the help.
