I haven't started reading about the camera yet, so I am still in 35mm mindset, but is this a reason the camera takes multiple shots? I was going to investigate later, but if I can take a short cut ...
Cameras have multiple exposure capabilities for several reasons. Yes, you can program many SLRs to take multiple photos of a scene, while on a tripod, and automatically change the exposure each time, so you are bracketing to get the right exposure. If you take an exposure unspderexposed, normally exposed, and one overexposed, HDR sofwptware uses all three to make one exposure that has better detail in the highlights and the dark areas of the scene.
