I need a compact camera which is compatible with CHDK, aperture larger than f3.5 and should weight less then 300 grams. I need it for image recognition project, a friend of mine has sort listed following 4 cameras

PowerShot SX160IS
PowerShot SX170IS
PowerShot SX210IS
PowerShot SX230HS

Since all the camera's are now discontinued by canon I can't find them anywhere, I would prefer to buy a new camera (since I need a bill), so any help regarding where I can find any of these cameras in Mumbai would be great.
 
You can sure find SX170 new, but at higher price.
There are lot of Canon cameras are compatible. Check this link... You may even consider second hand camera.
If you're buying a second hand camera, pay by cheque or online fund transfer. Your bank statement will reflect the transaction and it's good enough when you don't have a bill. Put a WTB thread in an online forum, most likely there would be some one you could sell their CHDK compatible camera.

Any idea where I can find SX170 in Mumbai ? Price isn't a big problem. I found these two online sellers but flipkart one is very shady and as for the amazon one, I don't know where he wants to ship it I tried lots of pins but non is working.

If I can't find it in India, I'll have to buy if from US and get it shipped here or someone coming might bring it along.
 
It's an old model and they all should be old stock. It was once selling for around 7k and I don't think its worth the price now(13k).

I don't know any local shops in Mumbai where you can find this model. If you can procure from US, you are more likely to get much better camera than this one.[DOUBLEPOST=1453342500][/DOUBLEPOST]Check out this listing
