This app has now made the Droid X my preferred camera for landscapes, easily beating my Canon PowerShot SD940 IS. The Canon has a spotmeter, which is a huge advantage in any camera. But for landscapes, where 95% of the time the sky is at least two stops brighter than the land, HDR Camera wins every time.
The disadvantages of this app are:
1) you take four photos, slowly, to produce one picture;
2) it takes a while for the app to load;
3) you are shooting through a phone's camera lens, meaning it's slow and tiny with no zoom.
The advantages are:
1) awesomeness!
You can even take portraits with it, but you need to advise your subject(s) to hold still as if they are being daguerreotyped circa 1849.
Otherwise you end up with grotesqueries such as this:
