good link that is. didn't know you are able control it so well, as indeed, 90% of the HDRs on Flickr look like bad acid trips and i started to get tired of it.

there's usually a lot more image information in the dark areas than people think, especially with canon dslr's cmos sensors and even in jpg mode.
since photoshop CS, there is a great tool called shadows/highlights that can greatly help extend the range of a single image.sony ccd sensors are much noisier in those areas and what you pull out of the dark with sony ccd equipped cameras (nikon, minolta, pentax, sony) is sometimes less usable.

merge to hdr is a pain in the ass. it is way easier to just layer up multiple exposures and use a bunch of masks. the effect is the same and the control is more practical
the only time you NEED hdr is for global lighting crap in 3d software.

(Oct 10 06, 18:59)I'm too tired to write. So here, Wikipedia, first line for Tripods:
"In photography, a tripod, is a three-legged stand for a camera, used to stabilize and elevate the camera.".
