The guys above have explained it all. On my camera phone - it has a HDR mode - what it does is take two photos very quickly, one at a high exposure level, one at a low exposure, then combines them.
So you get the foreground exposed nicely, with the sky exposed nicely, and generally a good mix - which is what it sounds like you are after.
The only issue, is that if you move while taking a photo - you get ghosting.
Had a look on-line, at it appears your camera has a similar option. Give it a go! But remember, you have to be very steady.
