An extra stop of brightness and darkness on either side of the exposure spectrum.

Depending on the subject and amount of contrast (or dynamic range) in the scene, it can make a difference.

I wonder how well that feature works. I have CS4, but use Photomatix Pro for HDR imaging.

Here's what I've been producing with it:
