I recall someone posting up some HDR pics and I myself have tried doing them but they didn't turn out as good as the rest.

You should be able to. It'll just be more difficult.

Most entry level can only shoot at around 1/4000 sec and 3-5 fps.
The 1D Mk 3 used can shoot 1/8000 sec and blazing 10 fps.

With the slower entry level you have a greater chance of missing the split second where the water stays still so you might have to retry several times until you get it (or get lucky).
