I didn't know the XT will only do +/- 2 stops. That's pretty weak in my book. You don't need this feature for HDR, but I do agree it makes it easier!

Sounds to me like you need the 5D. I don't beleive the 40D is full frame? I currently shoot w/ a D200 (Nikon) and won't be upgrading until they get something along the lines of a D3x - something full frame, with a sensor approaching 20MP.

Problem with 5D, if you want a fast camera, is that its 3 FPS, same as XT, but the 40D is 6,5 FPS.
