Forget about the HDR DVD offered by Ben Wilmore, after using Photomatix for a while I thought there was more to learn, as I was happy with my results going strictly for enhancing dynamic range, not photo realism. Ben's DVD is basically useless, he doesn't explain anything in detail, just goes through the sliders and says "Play with this until you are happy" and then moves onto the next slider. He covers shooting images for HDR, which is a very basic principal and you can easily learn online faster and with more info than the DVD. Detail is what is needed in tutorial, explaining exactly what each adjustment is doing to pixels in your image, and how each adjustment is relative to the next, so you can understand better how to progress yourself and develop your own techniques. You are better off reading the PDF manual for Photomatix, working with that while you work with an image to discover exactly what each adjustment achieves.
