In burst mode, it stops after 3 exposures even if the shutter release is still held down.If you get an infra red remote, it only takes one picture per press.The 2 second self timer works best but the camera goes back to single or burst mode after the 3 exposures so you need to set a self timer again.The D5100 can be used for auto  bracketing and HDR but not sure I'd buy it if HDR was high on my list. Fine for occasional HDR.Sorry, I don't know which cameras are better but I'd look further before settling for a "half way there" camera.</blockquote>
