top tip, totally logical but something which strangely never occured to me! glad you like photomatix and yes I'd agree that a tripod will be of huge benefit for bracketed exposures. in case you wondered my camera (Canon 40d) supports +/- 2 EV only, but I've always found that to be sufficient.... I'm not really into the whole mega-extreme range of tones hdr offers, but I hate blown highlights or clipped shadows in the foreground and it's a pretty nifty way of avoiding those nasties ;)

cheers for the link to the tut, bookmarked it into my 'photography' folder as I'm sure there will be occasions when I'll be wanting to call on a massive dynamic range at some point in the future..

all the best,
Adam
