Don't change it manually...even with a tripod it can still be nearly impossible to align them (perfectly) even with photo editing software. Use your camera's AEB (automatic exposure bracketing) feature so you don't have to touch the camera. Usually the more you take and are able to combine, the better the shot. My camera only does 3 at a time. Some can do 5 and maybe even more for all I know.

D40 does not have auto bracketing. the D80 is the lowest model with that function.

unless i've just yet to find it in the D40, which if so i will punch myself because i've been doing it manually from the get-go due to not seeing an autobracketing function.

It doesn't have AEB, I just didn't know what camera he had.

Then it'll shoot 3 consecutive shots, one at each exposure level without you needing to touch the camera.
