My attempts to use HDR have not been good either.  The noise has increased,
and the moving parts (leaves, branches, etc.) are a mess, even with the
software's alleged "detail matching" ability.

When the camera is on a tripod, manually merging digital images is much
easier than with film originals.  If the camera and focus were not moved,
the clone can be aligned at, for example, the upper left corner (1,1) and it
appears it'll be perfectly aligned for the entire frame.

If the focus has been changed, for example for zone focusing, once the
magnification differences are adjusted for (I measure points in the frames
with the selection tool rectangle size), and the clone tool has been aligned
on a point in the scene, the one alignment also has stayed acceptable for
the entire relevant area, at least with my Canon 24mm (distortions of some
lenses like zooms can make this more difficult).
