PowerShot A570IS mode dial position can be read from the value of either propcase 49 or 50 using the get_prop ubasic command. The two propcases seem to be duplicates.
In REC mode, turning the mode dial counter-clockwise:

IXUS 950 / SD850 (Digic III)[]
The SCN values for my IXUS 950 IS seem to be a bit different (also the names here are translated):
16395 Night Snapshot 16397 Portrait 16400 Kids&Animals 16401 indoor mode 16402 Leaves 16403 Snow 16404 beach 16911 "Creative Light Effect" (makes light spots in the image to weird things)
additionally when switching SCN modes pcase 227 jumps between 1 and 0. Maybe its the ND Filter?
- Propcase #227 seems to be the "long shutter" indicator:
- it's 1 always in "Night snapshot" scene mode & when the exp. time is >= 1s (Digic III, tested with SD870)Fe50 21:27, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
SX10 (Digic IV)[]
