+1. You need to add extra few grands to the 5d price to have this feature. I'm wondering if the M series have it?

Yeah, but the D3x00 line doesn't have auto-exposure bracketing. Many of their Coolpix P&S cameras have it, but not their entry-level dSLRs.

You makes your choice and you pays your money. ;)

No idea, but a Rebel-level Nikon equivalent has it, as do most cellphones. I'm going to go out on a limb and declare a 5D-level body has the horsepower to manage the task. :P
