Gammanyne,
I sometimes do this too. I think in part it's psychological, we are more
used to identifying what to focus on horizontally. But part of it may well
be ergonaomical, the sheer physicality of working in a different plane is
unsettling for the focusing operation. Then again, it may be that there are
less obvious horizontal lines, rather than verical lines, upon which we can
choose to focus...
Either way, don't worry, shoot more film!

Now I have an m4 question. I seem to have some difficulty focusing when
I
go to shoot vertically. I had to focus horizontally and then reorient the
Camera and recompose. This was only noticable on the wideangle not the
tele.
Maybe it is just my newness to the rangefinder focus. If I am missing
something, I would appreciate some feedback. Thanks in advance. Keith.
