    Sonny, on the HDR discussion you forgot to tell them that they need to setup their camera for bracketing mode (in their menus) so that it will change the exposure in between shots and that they need to be in manual mode so they can setup the aperture and keep it the same. . If they just do as you told them they will get 7 shots all the same exposure. Usually 3 or 5 shots is plenty. 7 is excessive unless there is a really big difference between brights and shadows. For a beginner they should start with 3 shots to lean the process than move on to more if needed.
