Admittedly, I was guilty of this when I got the K7. There were some test shots here done by other Pentaxians, and together with just a few test shots myself with the in-camera HDR function. I wrote it off as not too useful and too general in terms of settings (there are none) to cater for the many variances that has to be taken into account when blending the different exposures for HDR. I did not even mention to ppl that this was something new to DSLRs since I myself was not convinced by what it can do.
Recently, I gave it a try again. I must say that I've been quite wrong, and with the proper PP, the Pentax in-camera HDR is certainly very useful.
Normal Exposed Shot
===============
HDR after PP
=========
The photos straight from camera is weak in contrast and color saturation. These are the 2 items that have been tweaked. (ie. levels, curves, saturation).
