Can I do this with my K5? Samsung Galaxy S4

This is something I have always wanted to do with a (D)SLR but could never find "the best way" to do it:
Samsung GALAXY S4 - Fun

Actually photomerge is the wrong tool:

Image Sequences in Photoshop

It should be auto-align layers.

Wow! It isn't that simple after all ... lots to do!
And to think that a simple "smart" phone can do all of this in one single operation.

Thanks for the link.

Doesn't the K5 do multiple exposures? The K20 would do exactly what you want via that method as I recall.

The K5 can do multiple exposures.
That's all I know about the "technique" (as per performed on the Galaxy S4).
Which of the two methods?

Auto EV Adjust I should think. Bear in mind I never tried it, though the description seems to fit the bill.

The simple smart phone is actually a very complex tool which has the participation of thousands of developers who come up with this technology based on the operating system the $800 tool uses.

Can be done with any existing camera with cheaper software (maybe even free) and 5 minutes of your time.

(My post contains bits of irony, sarcasm and humor too...dont be offended).

This Samsung thing looks like a photoshopmerge, so it is for advertising reasons published.

You can do that with K-5 I guess.
