I > usually point it to one side which makes me look like a real Goober. Works fine for me until I try shooting in portrait orientation. In that case I usually turn my cap around backwards. If I had a grip with the extra shutter release then I'd probably be OK that way too. Pointing a cap to one side is quite stylish at the moment... (not in my opinion, but I've never been stylish).

Re: PESO -- Which lens. which lens?
Silly...!! You put the hat on facing the usual way, then turn it to engage the latches so it doesn't blow off. Some lock at a quarter turn, some at a half turn. I thought everybody knew that... ; >) -p On 5/21/2012 7:37 AM, Darren Addy wrote: On Mon, May 21, 2012 at 1:49 AM, Bob W wrote: Having his hat on backwards has obviously confused him about which way round his head is.

Nice one, P.J. I had a similar problem when shooting the construction story. I had to turn my hardhat backwards, as that hard bill kept hitting the camera.
