Who wants 'HDRness'?

I am not sure why anyone would want the 'HDR look' - that usually means that something has been overdone. If the camera is already capturing the full dynamic range of a scene in one shot, surely a natural-looking 'HDR' shot shouldn't look any different.

This has probably been pointed out already, but Lightroom is one of the easiest possible ways of achieving HDR. Just fire off three bracketed shots, and LR blends them in moments, including alignment - and will save them as a DNG image. Much more control than doing it in the camera.
