do you know if I can take exposures automatically from the SLR(so there is no motion or displacement), specifically Canon 1000D (thats the one that I wanna buy). And do you know what is the max number of photos with different exposures that it can take? is it possible 9 photos?

This HDR for example, has 9 exposures:

I think it is a High Dynamic Range image too. The birds threw me off at first, but then I found the same image in elsewhere in Flickr without the birds and a little less pop. Even so, it is a great image.

It is an amazing photograph. It gets me fired up to try some HDR photography.

pihoni,

The D1000 can bracket the exposure up to +2 EV and -2EV. My older Canon can take only three images at a time, I suspect the same of the D1000. To get around that limitation, you could manually overide the exposure, changing the shutter speed.

ok, but can this process be automatic. I mean to change the shutter speed automatically.

By the way, do u advice me to buy canon 1000d ?

Haven't used 1000D but like steve78412 said you can use auto exposure bracketing which means the camera will automatically take three photos in a row, one normal exposure, one at -2ev and one at +2ev. That most likely is the only possibility without any external gear or manual fiddling.

But 3 exposures can be plenty.
