I don't use the buttons that much. I try to set the camera for the situation and then just leave all of the buttons alone. Usually, I either use center focus and recompose, or I use face recognition which seems to work great most of the time. I very seldom use the joystick but when I do, it doesn't seem to interfere with my left-eyed shooting.
