Hi Namdar,

Thanks for your comments. The issue is not that the D40 can't do exposure compensation, as you point out it can, and quite easily. The problem is you have to be able to take your brackets quickly. Clouds move, and if you want to get an HDR that doesn't have nasty looking clouds you need to take all the brackets as quickly after one another as is possible. Twiddling that thumb button is too slow at lot of the time in Irish weather.
