I usually do use RAW, but it is impossible to take multiple exposures of a moving object. I believe I mentioned in the tutorial that can you use RAW or 3 images with exposure manually changed in editing software... Personally when I have to take an image with a slow shutter, I'll simply use a raw, and manually change exposures and change it into 3 DNG's for use with photomatix.

yeah the tutorial is great and as you said about the moving objects, thats true. And I am use a amature photographer that started out like 6 months ago or so. You probably know this way better than me : ) keep up the good work

good to know! but i'm not really a fan of HDR it gives me a bit of an artificial feel most of the time

Yeah, especially the halos. I only do HDR to bring out undeveloped tones in the darker areas of images
