And sometimes better. ;-) You get knocked flying by football players along the sidelines while covering a game,:-) Yes it does hurt! ;-) You always have the chance of missing key moments while moving the camera way from your face to advance film. That's why I always used motor drives on my SLR Leica's and Tom Abramhamsson RapidWinder's on my M6's and M'7s. And if someone is left eye dominant and they have shot in that fashion for sometime, then they try to switch to right eye? The eyes are always fighting to see properly, it can be overcome over an amount of time, some folks may differ. But trying to switch has driven some shooters near crazy fighting with their normal vision because the left eye is dominate.... and it's the reaction of a couple I know to leave well enough alone and shoot as they've always done... left eye! ted
