True, but typically only a total variation of two stops. For wide latitude scenes, exposure bracketing or exposure compensation and ideally a tripod are the way to go.

I shoot my Christmas decorations at night that way, typically as a stitched panorama as well.

I have an iPhone and they just incorporated HDR into their camera. I have noticed a huge difference in the quality. I took of a picture of my kitchen and the light around the window is significantly washed out with a non-HDR camera and looks great when using HDR.
I am not sure how it works, I think it is in the software. Hope this helps.

The chart is great.
