I was not aware that either camera had HDR. From my knowledge there is an expanded dynamic range, it does not seem like it would be the same HDR image as you would get with photomatix.
I do understand that images are captured in a standard 8 bit color scheme. With the expanded dynamic range, it doubles this to 16 bit color. However, even with a perfect exposure with the expanded dynamic range turned on, a true hdr picture does not seem likely. Colors may be much more accurate and contain better detail but it does not seem likely to be a true HDR image. If that is the case however, consider me corrected. If it is, then chalk one more point up for Pentax. One more option Pentax offers that Nikon and Canon have yet to address.
