[OM] HDR question

Trying  to eek out one more horse trip (somewhere near Moab I hear 
 fromt the CVO) with current horse cam but likely will absolutely 
require frequent HDR
processing  than I am accustomed to due to limited DR. (this could be a 
mistake but running out of time) I did some trial runs with PS with 3 
raw files hand held and is a bunch of work not have them look "off" and 
overdone but results can be fine. The alignment algorithm does seem up 
to the job (I hope).
(sheesh my &***&^% phone does hdr afterall)

The lens has a fair amount of barrel distortion at wide end
and I correct most of it via lens correction module in PS but dial back 
due to some unwanted effects sometimes in the corners as it is not a 
lossless procedure especially for this ye olde cam. If I do that and 
leave the 16bit files open after processing in ACR open in PS Iam 
warned that I will lose some dynamic range (DR) if I don't use the raw 
files. Curiously I did try that and the lens aberrations were clearly 
used by PS in merge to HDR even if not run through ACR first (at least 
by me)--though can not dial back. I am very confused as to what is best 
and how PS knew I wanted to use the lens aberration correction in the 
HDR version when just importing the raw files. Is that adjustable too?

OM kit will go too as usual  but that will be safe  in backpack even if 
on horse.

Puzzled, worried  Mike
