So far I haven't done any bracketing on my timelapse shots. I'm not sure if my remote timer can handle it (my camera - eos 550d- will only shoot a single picture in bracketing mode when triggered by the timer).
I worry that my camera processor is not fast enough to write 3 images in RAW format every 1 sec. Haven't tested it. Does anyone have experience with the 550d?

With the 300D, while you have it set to continuous shooting, the camera will do the 3 shots in a row with their respective EV. It will only take these 3 shots no matter the duration of the shutter timer.
So for example, I will set the timer to hold the shutter for 30 seconds with an interval of 30 seconds. This gives me 3 bracketed shots with about a minute between, and accounts for the exposure time (assuming the sum of all exposures is less than 30 seconds).
Looks like the 550D may function the same from looking at the manual on page 89 under Using AEB with continuous shooting.
I just use a cheapo timer using this method.
Hopefully this is helpful for you.

Isn't it a problem to combine shoots of (fast) moving clouds (e.g. 3 images -1/0/+1 EV)? I mean: The content of the images while change because of the movement.
