[QUOTE=
i shoot in RAW mode with my 20D and instead of taking several exposures of the same scene with a tripod, i've just changed the exposure compensation on one photo, saved different versions of it, and then used photomatix to do the combining and tone-mapping. whether or not this is "cheating" i don't know, but it works for me.[/QUOTE]

Funny you should mention that - That thought crossed my mind the other day but I found that the lighter areas, once you start overexposing the raw image, become quite grainy.
