This would actually really screw me up (horses for courses, I guess). For me: I always have the camera facing away from me - right hand gripping it, reach in with the ring finger, push the lever, and twist off with the left hand (still looking up at the stage or whatever my subject is). Throw lens into bag with left hand, grab other lens, spin it onto the body and keep shooting. My RH index finger barely even needs to come off of the shutter button. I can't imagine taking the time to flip the camera around to do all of this... where? On a tabletop or something? I usually change my lenses "on the fly" unless I'm setting up a static shot on a tabletop at home. -Charles -- Charles Robinson - [email protected] Minneapolis, MN http://charles.robinsontwins.org http://www.facebook.com/charles.robinson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
